00:00:26.839 --> 00:00:32.200
It is time to believe your warriors
outside and join me. Dan ol' mallley,
2
00:00:32.679 --> 00:00:41.280
Trey Trendholme, Raz Sharma, and
today's special guest inside the Treehouse from
3
00:00:41.320 --> 00:00:47.600
the New Old Mixed one O two
nine, Billy the Kid from the Billy
4
00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:50.880
the Kid in the Morning Show,
it was now flipping me off. No,
5
00:00:50.960 --> 00:00:54.719
I was saying number one, number
one, And you're right, Billy,
6
00:00:54.759 --> 00:00:58.399
there are more than one. There's
more than one finger you can use
7
00:00:58.479 --> 00:01:03.719
to tell someone you're number one.
That's true, that is true. Speaking
8
00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:07.560
of which, are you number one
yet? I don't think yet, but
9
00:01:07.599 --> 00:01:15.760
I'm trying my best. Does that
count in horseshoes, hand grenades and morning
10
00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:18.599
radio? Sometimes? Yes, that's
true. Yeah, No, things are
11
00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:22.760
good. Things are a lot better. So thank god, you know things
12
00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:23.959
are good. Actually, I'm pretty
happy with the way things are going.
13
00:01:25.959 --> 00:01:29.120
Is it the new old? Is
it the new old new old new mix?
14
00:01:30.920 --> 00:01:36.480
This is the old new new old
new. I feel like I feel
15
00:01:36.519 --> 00:01:38.599
like we're just a couple of olds
in the news and an av select away
16
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:44.359
from an old Nintendo code. Nothing's
worse though than Dan. You would appreciate
17
00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:46.519
this. In Tray he knows and
even Raj back in the day. You
18
00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:49.200
know this too when I was on
a station called Hot one hundred when they
19
00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:53.200
decided to change the name so many
damn different times that at one point the
20
00:01:53.319 --> 00:01:57.719
moniker for that station was triple the
music. The new Hot one hundred always
21
00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:05.319
at least eighteen songs to row your
new music station, and remember it shows
22
00:02:05.319 --> 00:02:09.919
over. Yeah, it is imprinted
not only in your brain, right here
23
00:02:09.960 --> 00:02:15.400
in your heart. It's scarred.
That's what that is. Its card tissue
24
00:02:16.960 --> 00:02:21.240
came up with that. That's the
that's the strange part. And so it
25
00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:23.360
was like, so, who's got
ideas for what we should call it?
26
00:02:23.719 --> 00:02:24.919
Well, you say it every time. I'm like, it's only a four
27
00:02:24.960 --> 00:02:30.400
hour show, what do we do? And it was a pop station,
28
00:02:31.280 --> 00:02:36.199
uh, with a lean towards rhythmic, so it's not like you had a
29
00:02:36.199 --> 00:02:39.800
whole lot of intro time to be
able to say all that stuff before hitting
30
00:02:39.840 --> 00:02:42.800
the post of a song. Yeah, And they were like, well,
31
00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:45.360
and have good content too, so
figure it out, but don't stop the
32
00:02:45.439 --> 00:02:52.199
music. And I believe at one
point you had one of the general managers
33
00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:54.840
calling you up on the hotline because
you were doing like a throng Thursday or
34
00:02:54.840 --> 00:02:59.080
something, and their wife didn't like
it. Oh, no, hated it.
35
00:02:59.319 --> 00:03:00.800
No, I was doing it joke. I did five dirty like a
36
00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:05.599
dirty word. Oh, five words, it'll turn any woman on. And
37
00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:07.120
then I'd have the girls call in
and I'd say the words, and I
38
00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:09.400
leave him out on the air well. He called and he's like, well,
39
00:03:09.400 --> 00:03:12.319
my wife wants to know. And
I'm like, I can't tell your
40
00:03:12.319 --> 00:03:14.439
wife. I can't know. There's
no way I can't tell your wife.
41
00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:16.599
He's like, well, then i'll
just see you tomorrow morning. I was
42
00:03:16.639 --> 00:03:21.120
like, I'm not telling you then, and he pissed and he was like,
43
00:03:21.199 --> 00:03:23.319
oh, you know what, hang
up. But that's you know,
44
00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:24.879
you know how it was back in
those days. It was a different world.
45
00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:30.120
And it's weird because that's that's that's
sort of a you know, private
46
00:03:30.159 --> 00:03:34.680
parts Howard sternmo movie type of moment
for you. It's like, your content
47
00:03:34.800 --> 00:03:38.560
was compelling enough that the station manager's
wife wanted to know what you were saying,
48
00:03:38.800 --> 00:03:40.479
yeah, yeah, and then I
wouldn't tell her yeah, and and
49
00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:45.560
you wouldn't tell them, therefore prolonging
the bit for the listener. But the
50
00:03:45.599 --> 00:03:50.120
station manager at the time couldn't appreciate
it for what it was and instead was
51
00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:53.000
more concerned about what he was going
to have to tell his wife when he
52
00:03:53.039 --> 00:03:58.800
couldn't keep his afternoon jock in line
because his uh, his his rebel in
53
00:03:58.840 --> 00:04:01.039
the afternoon wouldn't tell him the secrets. Well, it was his widow ego.
54
00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:04.199
It hurt his widow ego. You
know that he that he wanted me
55
00:04:04.240 --> 00:04:06.759
to tell him. And by the
way, the stupid thing was, it
56
00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:10.280
was a dumb bit that I used
to do. There was no five words,
57
00:04:10.759 --> 00:04:13.319
so I'd get on the air and
I'd say, all right, react
58
00:04:13.360 --> 00:04:15.079
like I said something really dirty and
perverted, and the girls would go,
59
00:04:15.160 --> 00:04:17.480
oh my god, and I'd bleep
it out. Some people were like,
60
00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:21.120
what is he saying? But it
was a stupid like nineteen nineties you know
61
00:04:21.240 --> 00:04:25.759
radio bit they used to do.
It's like whatever, Yeah, at that
62
00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:29.279
point, it's a throwaway bit for
you, but you know what works,
63
00:04:29.399 --> 00:04:33.040
so you do it. And it
worked so well that it ensnared the GM's
64
00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:35.399
wife. Oh and I put him
on the air. That's what he was
65
00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:44.360
pissed about. Left that part out
that particular of all the he ranks as
66
00:04:44.360 --> 00:04:48.439
one of the dumbest people I ever
worked for. Will I need to stop
67
00:04:48.480 --> 00:04:53.959
you both right here, because I'm
gonna need you both to be more specific,
68
00:04:54.040 --> 00:04:57.319
because Trey, when you say he
was the dumbest general manager I've worked
69
00:04:57.319 --> 00:05:00.000
for, I mean I've got like
three or four in my head swirling around.
70
00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:04.560
It all blurs together. Oh okay, Yeah. You know what's funny
71
00:05:04.600 --> 00:05:08.000
is I never really talked to him
that much. The only time I had
72
00:05:08.040 --> 00:05:14.040
a really awkward interaction with that particular
GM is RPD at the time. Rest
73
00:05:14.079 --> 00:05:17.480
in peace to Dan Kylie, who
I really liked. He was a smart
74
00:05:17.480 --> 00:05:19.920
guy. He had his own addiction
problems, he had some he had some
75
00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:30.120
issues. Fell asleep during my contract
negotiations. That's because that's because well wait
76
00:05:30.120 --> 00:05:32.839
a second, Billy, when he
fell asleep, were you in his office
77
00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:38.199
in front of him? In front
just to paint a picture of you of
78
00:05:38.199 --> 00:05:46.439
what Dan looked like? He not
me, No, Dan, he kind
79
00:05:46.439 --> 00:05:48.959
of looked like a I don't skinny
Jerry Garcia that had stuck his finger in
80
00:05:49.000 --> 00:05:56.639
a light socket. Wow. Okay, what a visual what a visual spot
81
00:05:56.680 --> 00:06:00.560
on that's sery part. Yeah,
we were talking of it a series conversation.
82
00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:01.240
I'm like, you know, I
think we could get there. We're
83
00:06:01.279 --> 00:06:03.800
you know, we're close to where
we need to be, and I looked
84
00:06:03.839 --> 00:06:08.680
up and he's just like and I
was like, this has gotta be a
85
00:06:08.759 --> 00:06:11.519
joke. This has got like this
is not real life. And I look
86
00:06:11.519 --> 00:06:13.839
around. I'm like, what do
you do? You just get up and
87
00:06:13.839 --> 00:06:15.519
pretend it didn't happen, or do
you go, hey, excuse me,
88
00:06:15.560 --> 00:06:19.279
because at that point the contract negotiation
is over. Yeah, no it's not.
89
00:06:19.680 --> 00:06:24.040
That's what that's when. That's when
the negotiation ramps up. That's when
90
00:06:24.079 --> 00:06:30.399
you write down uh seven fifty per
year plus endorsements and appearances. You initial
91
00:06:30.439 --> 00:06:31.839
and then you take his arm,
put that, put the pen in the
92
00:06:31.839 --> 00:06:36.720
hand, and just kind of weekend
exactly. You weakened and bernies his hand
93
00:06:36.759 --> 00:06:40.639
and next thing, you know,
you got a huge ass contract. I
94
00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:43.319
should have. But I remember walking
out and I go, you know,
95
00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:45.639
I'm just gonna I'll come back later. Kind of made a joke about it,
96
00:06:45.639 --> 00:06:47.519
and Sea Bird, I think,
what's his name, Dave? Dave?
97
00:06:48.160 --> 00:06:50.120
Yeah, okay. He walked by
and goes, hey, how's it
98
00:06:50.199 --> 00:06:55.800
going? And I go, you
tell me and you at the BD and
99
00:06:55.879 --> 00:06:58.800
he goes, oh god, and
he just walked away and I go,
100
00:06:58.800 --> 00:07:02.399
all right, see you later.
I don't know what's going on. It
101
00:07:02.480 --> 00:07:05.240
is pretty cool, though, to
have a to have a contract in radio
102
00:07:05.319 --> 00:07:09.839
that was signed by your boss,
not an ink, but you know with
103
00:07:09.959 --> 00:07:13.399
drool, yeah, droolue. And
I was like, just let me.
104
00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:15.680
I couldn't even find the contract.
I don't even think he had it,
105
00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:16.759
like I think it was supposed to
be. You know, in radio,
106
00:07:16.759 --> 00:07:19.680
you're supposed to go back and forth
on a term sheet, like a negotiation
107
00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:23.439
sheet, and most businesses do this, and well radio used to. I
108
00:07:23.480 --> 00:07:26.920
don't know if they still do really, but I never saw a term sheet.
109
00:07:27.000 --> 00:07:29.720
It was usually some emails back and
forth, some awkward face to face
110
00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:31.800
meetings. Well, because they don't
tell the talent usually that there is a
111
00:07:31.920 --> 00:07:35.040
term sheet, you know that they
so they report to corporate. Well,
112
00:07:35.040 --> 00:07:38.680
I offered him this, and then
you know, he said this, and
113
00:07:38.759 --> 00:07:41.360
I said this, so they can
track what you did back and forth.
114
00:07:41.800 --> 00:07:45.920
Because I had a boss one time. Tell me John Cook, who you
115
00:07:45.920 --> 00:07:55.240
guys remember? He's another one?
God does everyone around us. I think
116
00:07:55.240 --> 00:08:01.920
it's time for some for some self
reflection. I was totally stupid. That
117
00:08:01.000 --> 00:08:03.759
won't save you. Yeah, yeah, we might not get off this pad
118
00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:09.680
podcast alive on his hands but I
had him one time. He was telling
119
00:08:09.720 --> 00:08:11.920
me like, I guess I didn't
know what I was doing when I was
120
00:08:11.000 --> 00:08:13.639
negotiating, and I'm like, well, just how about this? And it
121
00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:18.120
was he was a good guy.
So he literally was like, hey,
122
00:08:18.279 --> 00:08:22.920
you know you might want to go
up and I got He goes, yeah,
123
00:08:22.399 --> 00:08:24.800
ask for more because I'm going to
write it down here and showed me
124
00:08:24.839 --> 00:08:26.959
the sheet and I go. He
goes, then I'm gonna say no,
125
00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:31.560
and then I'm gonna get you here
and I go, are we doing this?
126
00:08:31.759 --> 00:08:35.519
Okay? Sure? And he's you're
asking for way too little and I
127
00:08:35.600 --> 00:08:37.519
was like, oh, I didn't
know that. Okay, cool, I
128
00:08:37.559 --> 00:08:41.279
want more? So I got more
of a great Yeah, somebody would do
129
00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:48.519
that. Yeah. Type radio manager
is to say it's rare is a massive
130
00:08:48.639 --> 00:08:52.440
understatement. Yeah, it's like the
I don't know if you guys ever watched
131
00:08:52.480 --> 00:08:56.679
PONND Stars, but there's sometimes every
now and again there's a moment where the
132
00:08:56.679 --> 00:08:58.480
guy's like, somebody bring something in, like, so, what do you
133
00:08:58.519 --> 00:09:00.799
want for it? And he's like, just ten, Granny, it's probably
134
00:09:00.799 --> 00:09:01.919
worth about one hundred, so let's
start there. And I'm like, oh
135
00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:05.559
man, okay, so you had
that moment. Yeah, I had that
136
00:09:05.639 --> 00:09:09.480
moment, and normally that doesn't exist. They'll just take you for whatever you're
137
00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:13.159
gonna get. Oh, this idiot
here, because that's happened in many contracts.
138
00:09:13.159 --> 00:09:15.320
When I was first starting off,
I was like, I mean,
139
00:09:15.360 --> 00:09:20.240
I'll work for some a drink tab. Cool. I'm like, oh wait,
140
00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:22.240
I should get paid for this,
Okay, cool. Yeah, that's
141
00:09:22.240 --> 00:09:31.159
why there's no Indians in radio,
because we are taking that deal. Yeah
142
00:09:31.399 --> 00:09:33.120
no, and you're not wrong.
I mean I look like when I was
143
00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:35.639
starting out, like at the time
when you and I met, I think
144
00:09:35.679 --> 00:09:39.159
I was making like like ten bucks
an hour, and part of part of
145
00:09:39.159 --> 00:09:41.159
my agreement wasn't a contract. It
was just all right, you're gonna make
146
00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:45.320
ten bucks an hour and you can
have all the breakroom pizza you can eat.
147
00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:48.279
Yeah. Yeah, oh yeah.
That's when I was first starting on.
148
00:09:48.399 --> 00:09:50.200
I was like, okay, They're
like, oh no, what they'll
149
00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:52.480
do is in radio, they'll promise
you endorsements. But you're gonna get a
150
00:09:52.559 --> 00:09:56.480
ton of endorsements, so don't worry. Okay. It's like, oh,
151
00:09:56.519 --> 00:09:58.360
okay, cool, and then you're
a year later you're like, wait,
152
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:03.360
where are all these endorsements you know, you're like, okay, great,
153
00:10:03.440 --> 00:10:05.000
but by the way, that still
happens. But cool, oh yeah,
154
00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:09.360
that's there. There are some things
with radio that that are forever. Uh.
155
00:10:09.440 --> 00:10:15.879
One is uh mediocrity in in some
cases, and uh the other is
156
00:10:16.519 --> 00:10:22.519
the talent being promised or producers whatever
it is, being promised endorsements and appearances
157
00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:26.679
to make up the difference in salary
that they were hoping. Yeah, oh
158
00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:28.360
yeah, yeah, don't worry about
it. You're gonna get endorsements, and
159
00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:31.159
you're like, oh cool, no. Yeah. It's like in the comic
160
00:10:31.200 --> 00:10:33.720
world, though, you don't worry
about it. You're gonna get a bunch
161
00:10:33.759 --> 00:10:37.840
of corporate gigs, that's what and
that's where money is. And you're like,
162
00:10:37.000 --> 00:10:39.440
oh, like how much is it? Oh, it's a ton,
163
00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:43.159
don't worry about it. And then
you're eating chicken tenders, going hey,
164
00:10:43.159 --> 00:10:48.240
you can't wait for these corporate yeah. Or it's like when you DJ they'd
165
00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:50.480
be like, well, this is
gonna be a great gig back exposure,
166
00:10:50.759 --> 00:10:54.799
exposure, I mean, the exposure
is fantastic, and you do it,
167
00:10:54.840 --> 00:10:56.600
you'd be like yeah, okay,
cool, yeah, you're right. Yeah.
168
00:10:56.639 --> 00:10:58.879
I got to a point. Where's
the thing though, is that my
169
00:11:00.480 --> 00:11:05.360
mortgage lender doesn't doesn't take exposure is
pain. Yeah, I got. I
170
00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:07.279
got to the point where they go, you know, we'll give you so
171
00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:11.480
much exposure, like people die from
it. People die from exposure. So's
172
00:11:11.519 --> 00:11:15.360
yeah, I don't want to be
exposed. I don't want to be exposed
173
00:11:15.399 --> 00:11:18.480
anymore. It's true though, you
know, radio has changed over the years,
174
00:11:18.480 --> 00:11:22.840
but the days where we were doing
those times back in the day were
175
00:11:22.879 --> 00:11:24.559
just incredible. And I was talking
about it with someone the other day and
176
00:11:24.559 --> 00:11:28.159
I was like, you know,
we might not have been making a ton
177
00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:30.879
of money, we might not have
been, you know, at the best
178
00:11:31.399 --> 00:11:35.200
stations, but there was something magical
about it. I don't know. Maybe
179
00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:37.679
it's because we were just we didn't
know any better. You know, I
180
00:11:37.759 --> 00:11:41.399
know what it was because at that
time, it was you were working for
181
00:11:41.440 --> 00:11:43.679
Hot one hundred, slash Wild one
hundred. We were next door in the
182
00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:46.759
same building working at Live one oh
five three, a station that kind of
183
00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:50.879
caught lightning in a bottle for a
handful of years. And that feeling that
184
00:11:50.960 --> 00:11:54.759
you're talking about that we all had
inside that building, whether you worked at
185
00:11:54.799 --> 00:11:58.159
Live one o five to three or
Hot one hundred, Hot one hundred.
186
00:11:58.600 --> 00:12:03.039
It was the black Mold. Yeah, yeah, that's what it was.
187
00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:07.639
It because it was high. Yeah, we were all high on mold spores.
188
00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:13.200
It was basically a prequel to the
Last of Us. Inside that radio
189
00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:16.120
station about four miles away from downtown. I'm gonna get I'm gonna order you
190
00:12:16.159 --> 00:12:20.399
guys the book on Messa. That's
what I'm gonna get you guys. We
191
00:12:20.559 --> 00:12:22.639
guys need now. I think we
should be like you know those commercials that
192
00:12:22.679 --> 00:12:26.360
come on when you're watching prices right, like you're entitled to a class action
193
00:12:26.519 --> 00:12:31.080
loss. I feel like we should
be entitled. Oh we should every time,
194
00:12:31.559 --> 00:12:35.440
whether it's miso thilioma as beestis or
if you know, my favorite one
195
00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:39.320
is. And I think this also
would apply to us. If we've had
196
00:12:39.399 --> 00:12:43.960
issues with our vaginal mesh, we
need to contact this attorney. And I
197
00:12:43.000 --> 00:12:48.360
guarantee you we've all got those issues
stemming from that building on John you guys
198
00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:50.159
use did you guys use talcum powder
at any point? Because we can't get
199
00:12:50.200 --> 00:12:52.559
you guys on that one. We
couldn't afford that, we couldn't know where
200
00:12:52.600 --> 00:12:56.840
that, we can't afford anything.
But there was so much a best rats
201
00:12:58.039 --> 00:13:00.679
that building was maybe one of the
Well, I don't know, because we've
202
00:13:00.679 --> 00:13:03.759
had rats in our building now,
so maybe they followed me. I don't
203
00:13:03.840 --> 00:13:05.759
know. I don't know what's going
on, but that building was disgusting because
204
00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:09.039
they would run right in front of
you. They didn't even care. Bill,
205
00:13:09.200 --> 00:13:11.360
it's not you, it's not you, Billy, Okay, good,
206
00:13:11.399 --> 00:13:16.399
thank you. Keep telling it's others. Good. It's just the sales department.
207
00:13:16.720 --> 00:13:20.759
Yeah, well, and it's it's
kind of weird though, because of
208
00:13:20.799 --> 00:13:26.960
all the powdery substances that were floating
around that building back in the early to
209
00:13:26.080 --> 00:13:31.440
mid two thousands, the ones that
didn't kill you, killed Billy's bosses.
210
00:13:31.159 --> 00:13:37.759
Yeah. I mean that's just facts. That's just simple facts right there.
211
00:13:39.600 --> 00:13:41.240
Like my first day on the job, and this wasn't even the same program
212
00:13:41.240 --> 00:13:45.720
director. When I first got to
Dallas, they forgot about me. They
213
00:13:45.720 --> 00:13:46.720
were like, hey, we're going
to put you up in this holiday inn
214
00:13:46.879 --> 00:13:50.480
for about a week because we can't
go on the air yet. And I
215
00:13:50.519 --> 00:13:52.840
go, okay, cool, I
mean whatever, I'm like twenty years old.
216
00:13:54.039 --> 00:13:56.759
I go in this holiday inn by
Mockingbird on Mockingbird by the Airport by
217
00:13:56.799 --> 00:14:00.399
love Field, and I'm like a
couple of days in im like, does
218
00:14:00.440 --> 00:14:03.039
this guy know I'm still I'm like, I'm here, I haven't met my
219
00:14:03.080 --> 00:14:03.919
boss. And I call him.
I go, hey, dude, you
220
00:14:03.919 --> 00:14:05.519
know I'm here. What are you
want me to do? He goes,
221
00:14:05.960 --> 00:14:11.519
oh, ship, that's right,
because you were supposed to be unveiled,
222
00:14:11.639 --> 00:14:16.840
right. Yeah, Like I moved
across the country. I drove my Chrysler
223
00:14:16.919 --> 00:14:18.879
Sea bring down here. Wow.
Oh yeah, I had one. It
224
00:14:18.919 --> 00:14:24.279
wasn't I couldn't afford that, but
I made it. It made it,
225
00:14:24.679 --> 00:14:26.679
and I could not. He forgot. He goes, I'll come pick you
226
00:14:26.759 --> 00:14:31.840
up. My bad, My bad? Then do you then? Do you
227
00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:37.159
fast forward? You've really arrived.
You're at contract negotiations with another PD and
228
00:14:37.440 --> 00:14:41.120
he passes out at the test.
And chances are had you lifted it up
229
00:14:41.120 --> 00:14:43.799
and looked at the contract sheet,
it would have just been like a Garfield
230
00:14:43.879 --> 00:14:48.559
cartoon if I don't even know if
that would have been the case. No,
231
00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:50.240
he literally, and then they picked
me up, and they forgot to
232
00:14:50.279 --> 00:14:54.399
fire the other show. So when
I walked in, the other show was
233
00:14:54.440 --> 00:14:56.679
there, and he goes, oh, God, just give me a minute,
234
00:14:56.720 --> 00:15:00.240
and I goes, no, this
is not really happening, and he
235
00:15:00.320 --> 00:15:07.679
walks into the studio, fires everybody
and goes, you're good. I want
236
00:15:07.720 --> 00:15:11.240
you to remember this story if at
any point in your life, as you're
237
00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:15.759
hearing this, you think, you
know what I'd like to get into radio.
238
00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:22.000
Yeah. If my son asked me. My son's like, you know,
239
00:15:22.080 --> 00:15:24.480
radio does look fun, I'm like, it sucks. Don't do it.
240
00:15:24.679 --> 00:15:28.440
Yeah, and trust me, you're
your future has Your future is brighter
241
00:15:28.559 --> 00:15:33.159
if you were to get into a
seabring and drive into the sunset. Yeah.
242
00:15:33.759 --> 00:15:37.279
I got told once. I said, if you uh, if you
243
00:15:37.320 --> 00:15:43.440
have the chance to kill yourself or
good morning radio jump. Speaking of which,
244
00:15:43.000 --> 00:15:46.240
Billy, how are you on the
edge of that cliff? Well,
245
00:15:46.360 --> 00:15:56.200
I'll see you later. You're listening
to the Treehouse visitors online that Treehouse on
246
00:15:56.360 --> 00:16:07.159
air dot com. Let's get Jaqueline
from Brooks Plumbing into the Treehouse now two
247
00:16:07.200 --> 00:16:10.559
one, four, three six eight
thirty eight thirty eight. That's the phone
248
00:16:10.600 --> 00:16:12.759
number you will need for any and
all of your plumbing wants and needs,
249
00:16:12.759 --> 00:16:17.000
including including emergencies. They will help
you with that as well. The website
250
00:16:17.000 --> 00:16:22.440
Brooks Plumbingtexas dot com. I read
recently a headline where a man was referred
251
00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:26.799
to as Pickleman. The origin story
not so great. It's because he stuck
252
00:16:26.840 --> 00:16:30.120
his head in Nevada Pickles, but
still the headline Pickleman. And I immediately
253
00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:33.799
thought, oh my god, if
there was a superhero that could steal my
254
00:16:33.919 --> 00:16:37.840
wife away from me, it wouldn't
be Batman. It'd be Pickleman, because
255
00:16:37.840 --> 00:16:41.799
that's how much she loves pickles.
Is there a superhero that might steal you
256
00:16:41.840 --> 00:16:45.600
away from your colby? It would
have to be a combination of I want
257
00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:51.759
Deadpool's humor, but in like one
of the Batman with nipples bodies. I
258
00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:56.840
love the Batman with nipples Jean like
Timeline. For me, though, it's
259
00:16:56.879 --> 00:17:03.519
it's Val Kilmer, like I love
that Val Kilmer, like that region of
260
00:17:03.519 --> 00:17:08.519
his career, those years where he's
Tombstone, Batman the Saint. So I
261
00:17:08.559 --> 00:17:12.319
want Val Kilmer Batman, and I
want his like sweetness, but I want
262
00:17:12.359 --> 00:17:17.480
the Deadpool humor. Just wished into
one And I got to tell you this
263
00:17:17.519 --> 00:17:19.039
is a broad statement for all men. All men go watch The Saint.
264
00:17:19.359 --> 00:17:22.440
To a certain degree, I think
that's what every woman wants. We want
265
00:17:22.440 --> 00:17:26.640
somebody that's a protector, but we
want there to be a sense of adventure.
266
00:17:26.759 --> 00:17:30.160
I also commend that film for doing
something no other film I don't think
267
00:17:30.279 --> 00:17:34.880
is ever done a nuclear physicist wearing
knee socks and being taken seriously. And
268
00:17:34.920 --> 00:17:40.799
the other thing was Val Kilmer's The
Saint made driving a Volvo look cool.
269
00:17:41.200 --> 00:17:44.400
He could have done anything I think
in that movie and made it cool.
270
00:17:44.400 --> 00:17:47.440
But it's Val Kilmer. So this
is why I want Batman with nipples.
271
00:17:47.480 --> 00:17:51.640
Val Kilmer, you know, to
come fistfight Colby and you're just be sitting
272
00:17:51.680 --> 00:17:53.839

Cheer for both of them. I don't
273
00:17:53.880 --> 00:17:56.279
know who I want to win.

senior year and me and three other guys
295
00:19:33.880 --> 00:19:37.319
drove down to South Padre Island,
and in that time that was like one
296
00:19:37.359 --> 00:19:42.960
of the most popular places in the
United States to have spring break. Matter
297
00:19:44.000 --> 00:19:48.200
of fact, MTV had a stage
set up on the beach. We stayed
298
00:19:48.279 --> 00:19:53.480
at the Radison one year, right
outside from where that stage was, and
299
00:19:53.559 --> 00:19:56.519
it was just like, I don't
know how to explain it. I mean,
300
00:19:56.519 --> 00:20:00.440
this little bitty island that you know
probably does and have more than five
301
00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:04.880
hundred people that live there, all
of a sudden got twenty thousand kids coming
302
00:20:04.880 --> 00:20:08.359
into it within like a two week
span, and it was just in sanity.
303
00:20:08.400 --> 00:20:11.880
You're staying up until five or six
o'clock in the morning, you go
304
00:20:11.920 --> 00:20:14.720
home and take a nap, and
then you get up the next day and
305
00:20:14.759 --> 00:20:18.640
you're out on the beach by noon
and it's just you start drinking. You
306
00:20:18.640 --> 00:20:22.680
don't stop. It's like, if
you stop being drunk, you will not
307
00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:26.680
have a good time. I think
you just found your new T shirt.
308
00:20:27.559 --> 00:20:32.799
There you go. Well, the
good news is that whole party lifestyle is
309
00:20:32.839 --> 00:20:37.160

owner in North Texas now and he wants

He had to hit the road to get
327
00:22:02.640 --> 00:22:07.720
to get a gig in. And
so Billy the kid from the New Old
328
00:22:07.799 --> 00:22:12.799
Old, New Old in Mixed one
or two nine morning shows graciously been abducted
329
00:22:12.839 --> 00:22:17.039
by the Treehouse to step around for
for an additional segment. And we're gonna
330
00:22:17.039 --> 00:22:22.160
make it worth your while, Billy. All right, So I know that
331
00:22:22.480 --> 00:22:25.279
being the host of a morning show
finally. Good job. By the way,
332
00:22:25.440 --> 00:22:29.039
thank you that you are up to
date with many current events, especially
333
00:22:29.039 --> 00:22:34.000
those current events in and around Dallas
Fort Worth. So I feel highly confident
334
00:22:34.279 --> 00:22:37.640
that you heard about the poo at
the Zoo that the Fort Worth Zoo did
335
00:22:37.680 --> 00:22:44.839
around Valentine's Day. And I feel
like there's an opportunity for you, Billy
336
00:22:44.920 --> 00:22:51.240
and your producer Yeah Pooh Yeah,
to do some serious working together. And
337
00:22:51.480 --> 00:22:56.720
whether that's pooh with a shovel at
the Fort Worth Zoo or whatever, a
338
00:22:56.759 --> 00:23:00.240
weird zanything you can come up with. I just maybe at the end of
339
00:23:00.279 --> 00:23:02.599
the day, I think, because
I know you like to do things to
340
00:23:02.640 --> 00:23:04.319
poo in all uses in time,
so I think that I love it.
341
00:23:04.880 --> 00:23:07.880
I love it. I'd be happy
to I don't care if he likes it.
342
00:23:07.920 --> 00:23:11.599
I think it's a great idea.
Uh. The other day he was
343
00:23:11.079 --> 00:23:15.039
tramping around in high heels, which
I thoroughly enjoyed. He we did see
344
00:23:15.079 --> 00:23:19.200
that national anthem. So yeah,
something, this makes sense. And if
345
00:23:19.240 --> 00:23:23.319
you don't know, this is where
they could buy some Pooh and dedicate Pooh
346
00:23:23.359 --> 00:23:26.920
from the zoo to their acts or
whoever they wanted to, right exactly,
347
00:23:26.960 --> 00:23:30.920
that's it. He so needs to
go to the zoo and shovel poop and
348
00:23:32.240 --> 00:23:34.359
uh, maybe that's what you can
do. You can arrange with Forward Zoo
349
00:23:36.000 --> 00:23:42.519
to have a Pooh exhibit there.
It is. See, this is the
350
00:23:42.559 --> 00:23:47.359
next big morning radio thing is gonna
got and you heard it. Can't wait
351
00:23:47.400 --> 00:23:52.559
to get canceled. You can't wait. This is gonna be great. So
352
00:23:52.599 --> 00:23:56.359
you're saying, let's put Pooh in
a cage and just say, okay,
353
00:23:56.400 --> 00:24:00.839
our next exhibit is Pooh, No
billy, not a cage, jesus.
354
00:24:00.079 --> 00:24:04.559
Oh, you know, like a
like a nice zu an exhibit, not
355
00:24:04.680 --> 00:24:08.160
a prisoner billy. Oh my god, Well listen, I don't know what
356
00:24:08.160 --> 00:24:11.160
you're what you're thinking. I'm trying
to get in your mind here, but
357
00:24:11.160 --> 00:24:15.200
I'm down for either one. So
I mean, well, I mean just
358
00:24:15.440 --> 00:24:18.279
for the show's sake, you know, we have him done. He's done
359
00:24:18.279 --> 00:24:22.920
some stupid stuff over the years.
But listen that to me, anything that
360
00:24:22.960 --> 00:24:26.680
involves the zoo I'm good with.
Yeah, I think it'd be interesting.
361
00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:29.640
It'd be an interesting thing where you
can do it. Hey, it's you
362
00:24:29.640 --> 00:24:33.599
know, it's pooh at the zoo
and friends and families with children. You
363
00:24:33.599 --> 00:24:38.480
know, you could go, could
go see what a radio producer looks like
364
00:24:38.599 --> 00:24:42.599
in its almost natural habitat. Yeah. Almost. Is that the same zoo
365
00:24:42.599 --> 00:24:47.319
that just happened that the silver back
y? Yeah, I don't know.
366
00:24:47.319 --> 00:24:51.599
If him there, he might die. Yeah, they're zoo keepers. Only
367
00:24:51.680 --> 00:24:55.200
had a bit of a pr problem. So what was that all about?
368
00:24:55.279 --> 00:24:59.440
This is where the two trainers were
in with the silver back gorilla and it
369
00:24:59.480 --> 00:25:00.640
was like, oh my bad,
I let the cake. Well, how
370
00:25:00.680 --> 00:25:06.599
do you accidentally leave the gorilla out? So they explained it that because they
371
00:25:06.640 --> 00:25:12.039
forgot to put a bell on him
during feeding, they're supposed to go from
372
00:25:12.119 --> 00:25:18.119
one enclosure to another, and they
forgot to move said gorilla into the other
373
00:25:18.200 --> 00:25:22.559
enclosure, and they were going in
there doing some cleaning and then realized that.
374
00:25:22.640 --> 00:25:27.200
Oops. Yeah, see that right. There is why I can never
375
00:25:27.240 --> 00:25:32.359
be allowed to work at the zoo, because if you are in any way
376
00:25:32.400 --> 00:25:37.400
forgetful, you should not work there. I have the brain of warm putty
377
00:25:37.599 --> 00:25:42.319
when it comes to memory. So
I would be dead at the zoo inside
378
00:25:42.359 --> 00:25:45.079
of five minutes. Oh yeah,
no, I would be dead. I'd
379
00:25:45.160 --> 00:25:48.200
kill somebody else. So by accident, that's the part that I would hate,
380
00:25:48.240 --> 00:25:51.240
you know what I mean, forget
I'd be the one that forgot the
381
00:25:51.440 --> 00:25:52.960
Oh oh you're still in there.
Oh, I just let him lose my
382
00:25:53.079 --> 00:25:59.079
bad. I can't remember if I
shampooed my hair in the shower. Oh,
383
00:25:59.079 --> 00:26:02.039
I don't remember anything. Yeah,
I'm the worst about it too,
384
00:26:02.079 --> 00:26:04.200
So I get it. I would
be a mess. But that somebody better
385
00:26:04.200 --> 00:26:10.279
have gotten fired for that. Well
maybe that's the other part of the interview
386
00:26:10.359 --> 00:26:14.079
process when you go to apply for
working at a zoo, is they ask
387
00:26:14.160 --> 00:26:15.480
you do you have a good memory? Yes? You do? Okay,
388
00:26:15.480 --> 00:26:18.279
good? And then and then the
follow up question is how fast are you?
389
00:26:18.359 --> 00:26:22.519
How fast are you? Well,
that's the thing about it, because
390
00:26:22.519 --> 00:26:25.960
you know, like I'm terrified of
bears. Thankfully there's not many bears in
391
00:26:26.000 --> 00:26:27.920
Texas. Although I just read an
article that more bears are coming down this
392
00:26:29.039 --> 00:26:33.839
way from Oklahoma, which pisses me
off. Either way, black bears June
393
00:26:33.880 --> 00:26:38.039
must be a horrible month for you. Yeah, I hate the bear round
394
00:26:38.160 --> 00:26:44.599
up. Yeah, it's terrifying.
I won't even go to Colorado, Like,
395
00:26:44.799 --> 00:26:49.319
I'm not going anywhere outdoors where there's
bears. People are like other kind
396
00:26:49.359 --> 00:26:55.400
of bears. Oh that bear.
No, those bears in June. Yeah,
397
00:26:55.440 --> 00:26:59.079
those bears I'm fine with. But
it's really it's really interesting when those
398
00:26:59.079 --> 00:27:03.359
two crowds come to get there at
the same time. Now, that's something
399
00:27:03.400 --> 00:27:06.519
I want to watch. But all
these different things you have to do with
400
00:27:06.519 --> 00:27:07.960
the bears, Like grizzly bears,
you're supposed to do something. See I
401
00:27:08.000 --> 00:27:11.720
already forgot, Like if you encounter
grizzly bears, you're supposed to make yourself
402
00:27:11.759 --> 00:27:15.920
as big as possible and like scream
hey bear, no yeah, no,
403
00:27:17.000 --> 00:27:25.359
yes, yeah, you're wrong.
Is brown as down and black attack black
404
00:27:25.400 --> 00:27:29.359
fight back grizzly Yeah, you don't
fight back, but you're trying to make
405
00:27:29.400 --> 00:27:33.039
yourself look bigger because generally they're just
trying to protect something, so it'll make
406
00:27:33.079 --> 00:27:37.200
it not worth it. But no, grizzlies, you're supposed to go make
407
00:27:37.200 --> 00:27:40.279
yourself as big as possible. See, I would think that's correct. I'm
408
00:27:40.279 --> 00:27:45.279
pretty sure it's brown down and black
attack like verbal kind of thing, because
409
00:27:45.640 --> 00:27:48.440
I mean, really, if if
you if you stand like if you're face
410
00:27:48.480 --> 00:27:51.400
to face with a grizzly bear,
right and you stand up and go,
411
00:27:52.440 --> 00:27:56.839
if you're face if you're face to
face, you've already lost. I'm knowing
412
00:27:56.839 --> 00:28:00.400
about as the bear is charging you
with a grizzly you're supposed to make yourself
413
00:28:00.440 --> 00:28:07.440
as big as possible and screen at
it to try it. He is doing
414
00:28:07.480 --> 00:28:11.440
that. There's actually there's videos that
I don't think the physically, I don't
415
00:28:11.480 --> 00:28:15.880
think the human body could physically when
when a grizzly bear is charging yet you
416
00:28:17.359 --> 00:28:22.160
spread eagle roar the thirty five miles
an hour and they're fourteen hundred pounds and
417
00:28:22.200 --> 00:28:25.960
they're gonna be like, I'm gonna
stand What am I gonna do here?
418
00:28:26.519 --> 00:28:27.880
I will send you all the video. There's actually a video of this that
419
00:28:27.920 --> 00:28:32.960
happened, and they did this and
the bear just runs off. Are you
420
00:28:33.160 --> 00:28:37.440
serious? Yes, I'm dead serious. This is they say with grizzlies,
421
00:28:37.480 --> 00:28:41.720
you are supposed to make yourself as
big as possible. Like there are some
422
00:28:41.759 --> 00:28:45.640
bears, yeah, play dead everything, but grizzlies make yourself big and loud,
423
00:28:45.880 --> 00:28:48.720
and they don't. They actually they
don't like contacts. So the theory
424
00:28:48.880 --> 00:28:52.480
is is that if they're charging you, they're trying to like it's typically a
425
00:28:52.519 --> 00:28:56.400
mom trying to protect their cubs.
They don't really want to fight, and
426
00:28:56.440 --> 00:28:57.559
so if it looks like it's going
to be a challenge, they will go
427
00:28:57.599 --> 00:29:02.519
away. Not getting big with a
bear. I'm crying. I'm not.
428
00:29:02.640 --> 00:29:04.160
I'm not, you know what.
I I don't think in my life I
429
00:29:04.160 --> 00:29:07.519
will ever be in a situation where
I'm really going to be in danger of
430
00:29:07.519 --> 00:29:11.640
being attacked by a grizzly bear.
Damn it, you said grizzly I was
431
00:29:11.680 --> 00:29:18.160
gonna say. I was just gonna
suggest you move, Trey, because you're
432
00:29:18.319 --> 00:29:22.799
you're you're in danger right now.
Yeah, Trey, whatever you do,
433
00:29:22.799 --> 00:29:29.440
don't look behind you, play dad, hurry Okay, just a quick Google
434
00:29:29.440 --> 00:29:33.200
search how to survive a grizzly bear
attack brown slash grizzly Bears. If you
435
00:29:33.240 --> 00:29:37.079
are attacked by a brown slash grizzly
bear, leave your pack on and play
436
00:29:37.160 --> 00:29:41.799
dead. Lay flat on your stomach
with your hands clasped behind your neck,
437
00:29:41.920 --> 00:29:44.359
spread your legs to make it harder
for the bear to turn you over.
438
00:29:44.799 --> 00:29:48.839
I'm not and remain still until the
bear leaves the area. Not talking about
439
00:29:48.839 --> 00:29:52.359
attacking. I'm talking about if I
so I should, if you're getting charged
440
00:29:52.359 --> 00:29:56.359
by a bear, act act big. You see all these rules, all
441
00:29:56.400 --> 00:29:59.400
these rules. Do you think anybody's
gonna remember this as you're panicking because there's
442
00:29:59.400 --> 00:30:02.920
a bear bre eating down your throat? All these all these rules and I'm
443
00:30:02.960 --> 00:30:06.200
just dead. I'm just gonna die. I'm just gonna cry and die.
444
00:30:07.559 --> 00:30:11.640
Probably probably what yourself too. Oh, I'm asking myself immediately. Can we
445
00:30:11.680 --> 00:30:14.200
swear? Yeah? Yeah, yeah
you can't. Oh yeah, good ship,
446
00:30:14.279 --> 00:30:15.440
I'm shipping myself. That feels good. I'm saying, I'm Mike,
447
00:30:15.480 --> 00:30:19.079
I'm a ship myself. Now.
That's gonna be the only thing I played
448
00:30:19.079 --> 00:30:26.920
from the promo for the show.
Really shit hisself, no no reason why.
449
00:30:26.359 --> 00:30:29.119
Yeah, we're not, we're not. We're not having Billy the Kid
450
00:30:29.160 --> 00:30:32.880
back inside the tree. He just
shit everywhere. Yeah, you know,
451
00:30:33.599 --> 00:30:36.119
you never know, you know,
I've always found that interesting, you know,
452
00:30:36.200 --> 00:30:37.920
like in movies and stuff, or
you hear stories about people that are
453
00:30:38.000 --> 00:30:44.240
so scared that they pee or they
poop themselves. I must be the exact
454
00:30:44.279 --> 00:30:48.079
opposite of that, because everything on
me just gets sucked back up inside.
455
00:30:48.119 --> 00:30:51.079
I just retract. Oh no,
I'm shipped myself being scared before. You've
456
00:30:51.079 --> 00:30:52.519
never know. I have literally Mike
Hill's house in sixth grade. I've watched
457
00:30:52.519 --> 00:30:56.720
a scary movie and literally ship myself. I still feel bad about it.
458
00:30:56.880 --> 00:30:59.000
My mom had to pick me up. It was awful. Is that why
459
00:30:59.000 --> 00:31:02.279
you had to leave Detroit and move
to Dallas? I was running from my
460
00:31:02.480 --> 00:31:07.160
reputation of shitting everywhere I went.
Oh, I wanted to ask you about
461
00:31:07.200 --> 00:31:11.279
this because we're all about the same
age, speaking of shooting yourself. Yeah,
462
00:31:11.480 --> 00:31:17.759
have you reached the age or have
you reached the level of maturity where
463
00:31:17.880 --> 00:31:22.480
you're disappointed in the toilet paper purchase? Because that happened to me recently,
464
00:31:22.759 --> 00:31:27.480
and it's it's a realization I didn't
I didn't enjoy because I'd gone to the
465
00:31:27.519 --> 00:31:33.599
bulk store and I got the toilet
paper that was by toilet paper in bulk.
466
00:31:34.000 --> 00:31:37.680
Awful. Yeah, decisions. First
of all, your your assholes too
467
00:31:37.720 --> 00:31:41.519
old for that. You know that
you know you can't you at this age,
468
00:31:41.559 --> 00:31:44.880
you treat yourself right. And one
of those things you pamper is your
469
00:31:44.880 --> 00:31:48.279
butthole. And and here's the thing
I I you know, it had been
470
00:31:48.319 --> 00:31:52.519
a long time since I had slummed
it with some cheap toilet paper, and
471
00:31:52.839 --> 00:31:57.839
I didn't fully inspect the packaging.
Instead of getting you know, ironically,
472
00:31:57.920 --> 00:32:01.240
the bare toilet paper, you know, the sharman. Instead of getting that,
473
00:32:01.440 --> 00:32:06.319
I got the stuff that's you know, also has the name of some
474
00:32:06.799 --> 00:32:10.079
guy, and it's I didn't.
I didn't look closely enough to see that
475
00:32:10.160 --> 00:32:16.039
it's barely one ply. And and
the thing that really sucks about this is,
476
00:32:16.359 --> 00:32:21.240
I mean, sure I saved like
eleven dollars on sixty four rolls of
477
00:32:22.799 --> 00:32:28.319
the word. Now I'm stuck with
sixty four rolls throwing out I mean translucent
478
00:32:28.640 --> 00:32:34.839
toilet paper. And the rolls are
so thick they never go away. I've
479
00:32:34.920 --> 00:32:37.200
gone I thought I've gone through like
four of these roles. There's still sixty
480
00:32:37.240 --> 00:32:40.240
three left in the cupboard. Throw
them in the ocean. Right now,
481
00:32:40.279 --> 00:32:44.440
you're by the ocean. Throw them
in the ocean and go get some charman.
482
00:32:44.559 --> 00:32:46.519
What are you doing with your life? You know better than that I
483
00:32:46.519 --> 00:32:49.799
don't like to be wasteable, Billy. I know, well, yeah,
484
00:32:49.799 --> 00:32:52.279
but you're not wasting. First of
all, you gotta appreciate your ass and
485
00:32:52.319 --> 00:32:54.200
you're pinky, because you know a
pinky's gonna slip through that little one ply.
486
00:32:55.079 --> 00:32:59.200
You don't. You don't know me, Yeah I do. You don't
487
00:32:59.200 --> 00:33:02.480
never wipe. Know what my pininky's
been through. Yeah, I know it's
488
00:33:02.519 --> 00:33:08.119
been through that toilet paper. You
gotta pamper yourself. There's certain things gonna
489
00:33:08.119 --> 00:33:10.599
take care of when you get older. I don't care. That's one thing.
490
00:33:10.720 --> 00:33:15.440
I could be dirt poor and I'm
gonna spend money on toilet paper.
491
00:33:15.559 --> 00:33:17.640
You gotta be boogie about your toilet
paper. And that's and that's why I
492
00:33:17.640 --> 00:33:21.519
wanted to ask you about it,
because I think we're all about it because
493
00:33:21.559 --> 00:33:24.000
I I had. It was a
valuable lesson I had to uh to teach
494
00:33:24.039 --> 00:33:28.119
myself, and I'll never make that
mistake again. I'm with you, Billy.
495
00:33:28.200 --> 00:33:30.799
I'm never going to buy a cheap
toilet paper. No. Really,
496
00:33:30.839 --> 00:33:32.400
you have to do more than just
toilet paper, though. You really have
497
00:33:32.440 --> 00:33:37.440
to do wet wipes. So you
have to do wet wipes and the Sharman
498
00:33:37.559 --> 00:33:40.119
I do dude wipes. I've got
those as well. Do those? So
499
00:33:40.240 --> 00:33:45.359
you like, do do wipes toilet
paper? Finish up with the dude wipe?
500
00:33:45.559 --> 00:33:47.799
Really? Yeah? Oh so you're
bookending your wipe. See what I
501
00:33:47.839 --> 00:33:52.880
did was I used the toilet paper
and then I finished with then I finished
502
00:33:52.880 --> 00:33:59.599
with the dude No, because then
you're leaving yourself wet. Okay, it's
503
00:33:59.640 --> 00:34:01.839
a lot of I know, but
you want to finish with a but you
504
00:34:01.960 --> 00:34:05.039
got to use a wife. Anybody
who doesn't use a wipe, I'm like,
505
00:34:05.039 --> 00:34:08.000
do you wash your car with a
dry rag? Makes sense? You
506
00:34:08.039 --> 00:34:12.559
don't. I mean, hell,
I got excited about my new beard trimmer
507
00:34:12.599 --> 00:34:15.760
the other day, So I mean, I mean you really, do you
508
00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:17.920
reach a certain age you need to
start to appreciate the little things? Yeah,
509
00:34:19.000 --> 00:34:22.679
it's the little things. Accounting like
all this butthole talk like y'all are
510
00:34:22.320 --> 00:34:28.239
run from a bear trays like hasn't
said a word. Apparently he doesn't wipe
511
00:34:28.239 --> 00:34:31.199
his ass. Oh no, I
am, I have all. I have
512
00:34:31.360 --> 00:34:37.320
absolutely agreement with you. That is
my greatest dilemma as far as toilet paper
513
00:34:37.320 --> 00:34:39.280
goes, is that I can never
remember when I'm at the store for some
514
00:34:39.320 --> 00:34:44.840
reason, whether I like Sharman orquilted
Northern Charman Charman, or you get a
515
00:34:44.840 --> 00:34:47.000
bidet if you want to get real
fancy, yes, or just bring in
516
00:34:47.039 --> 00:34:50.480
the garden hose do something, but
you can't just use one, or you
517
00:34:50.559 --> 00:34:52.800
get one of those detachable shower heads
that works too, oh yeah, or
518
00:34:52.920 --> 00:34:57.039
you know, I mean just you
could just bring the hose through the window
519
00:34:57.159 --> 00:34:59.800
or something. But this I think
is important. I think as long as
520
00:34:59.800 --> 00:35:05.840
our our ass cleanliness is up to
a certain standard, I don't think the
521
00:35:05.840 --> 00:35:08.519
three of us have to worry about
bear attacks because our asses will be so
522
00:35:08.880 --> 00:35:13.360
clean a bear won't even smell us. No, no, they won't,
523
00:35:13.440 --> 00:35:15.519
and I know they have good scent. But listen, if you, dude,
524
00:35:15.519 --> 00:35:17.960
wipe and you clean your bootyhole the
right way, I think you're fine.
525
00:35:17.960 --> 00:35:20.719
I don't eve think they'll bother with
you. That's what I'm hoping,
526
00:35:20.719 --> 00:35:22.960
at least, because that's that's what
I said. They just give you like
527
00:35:22.000 --> 00:35:25.079
a hat tip out of respect,
like oh clean butthole, good shit man,
528
00:35:27.199 --> 00:35:30.280
just like not literally, but you
know what I mean. But that's
529
00:35:30.320 --> 00:35:32.840
important, though, dude, that's
important. I literally there's certain things.
530
00:35:32.880 --> 00:35:37.000
Coffee, good coffee, how depressing? Is this? This is the age
531
00:35:37.119 --> 00:35:42.719
rat. We're like good coffee,
yep, good toilet paper, and my
532
00:35:42.800 --> 00:35:46.400
bones crack when it's about to rain. God, really, mind do it
533
00:35:46.440 --> 00:35:49.800
every day no matter what. Yeah, mind you too, But it gets
534
00:35:49.800 --> 00:35:52.280
really bad when it's about the mine. Actually I can't. I can't sneak
535
00:35:52.320 --> 00:35:57.119
out of bed without waking up my
wife because as soon as my toes hit
536
00:35:57.159 --> 00:36:00.840
the hardwood floor, they all snap
and she she pops right up. How
537
00:36:00.920 --> 00:36:02.599
old are we? Should we just
go putting new tennis balls on our walker
538
00:36:02.679 --> 00:36:07.440
now or what? Well, we're
all old enough to remember when mixed one
539
00:36:07.480 --> 00:36:09.280
O two nine was actually new.
Yeah, well that didn't have to take
540
00:36:09.320 --> 00:36:20.159
that was well? Blow just walked
you right into that. Yeah, steel
541
00:36:20.199 --> 00:36:24.000
plated door, didn't I. That's
fun, Billy. It's always fun hanging
542
00:36:24.000 --> 00:36:25.880
out with you. Man. Love
having you in the treehouse. Yeah,
543
00:36:25.880 --> 00:36:28.920
I love. I love being here. So thank you guys for having me.
544
00:36:28.920 --> 00:36:31.000
It's fun. We'll do this more
often, obviously. If you're not
545
00:36:31.119 --> 00:36:35.880
already, then you're just an asshole. If you're not already listening to Billy
546
00:36:35.920 --> 00:36:38.679
the Kids Morning Show. Uh,
it really is. And I'm not just
547
00:36:38.719 --> 00:36:43.400
saying this because he's a close personal
friend, and he's also venmowing me as
548
00:36:43.400 --> 00:36:46.480
we speak. He's one of the
top talents, not only in DFW radio
549
00:36:46.599 --> 00:36:52.119
but in the country. So do
yourself a favor. Listen to some actual
550
00:36:52.280 --> 00:36:57.639
good ass radio in the morning on
the Old New, New Old. On
551
00:36:57.719 --> 00:37:01.199
that go to one O two point
nine. Yeah, thank you, thank
552
00:37:01.239 --> 00:37:06.079
you. I appreciate that. Love
you, Billy, clean your buttle Go
553
00:37:06.199 --> 00:37:15.480
to Mix one or two nine now. Yeah. By the way, if
554
00:37:15.480 --> 00:37:19.519
we ever end up back on the
radio again, our station name is going
555
00:37:19.599 --> 00:37:22.880
to be the Dick. Oh that's
great. Yeah, I like that.
556
00:37:23.559 --> 00:37:30.559
Yam yeah, yeah cool. Just
wait for the Billboard arts. Yeah.
557
00:37:30.639 --> 00:37:37.800
Oh, there's so many good things
you can do with it. Oh.
558
00:37:37.920 --> 00:37:45.679
The important thing is when you see
one in the wild, make yourself big.
559
00:37:47.920 --> 00:37:51.880
All right, We'll see you back
here in the treehouse tomorrow. Tomorrow
560
00:37:51.960 --> 00:37:55.960
in the tree house. It is
Friday and we will be live. So
561
00:37:57.000 --> 00:37:58.480
we'll see you back here in the
treehouse tomorrow
1
00:00:26.839 --> 00:00:32.200
It is time to believe your warriors
outside and join me. Dan ol' mallley,
2
00:00:32.679 --> 00:00:41.280
Trey Trendholme, Raz Sharma, and
today's special guest inside the Treehouse from
3
00:00:41.320 --> 00:00:47.600
the New Old Mixed one O two
nine, Billy the Kid from the Billy
4
00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:50.880
the Kid in the Morning Show,
it was now flipping me off. No,
5
00:00:50.960 --> 00:00:54.719
I was saying number one, number
one, And you're right, Billy,
6
00:00:54.759 --> 00:00:58.399
there are more than one. There's
more than one finger you can use
7
00:00:58.479 --> 00:01:03.719
to tell someone you're number one.
That's true, that is true. Speaking
8
00:01:03.719 --> 00:01:07.560
of which, are you number one
yet? I don't think yet, but
9
00:01:07.599 --> 00:01:15.760
I'm trying my best. Does that
count in horseshoes, hand grenades and morning
10
00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:18.599
radio? Sometimes? Yes, that's
true. Yeah, No, things are
11
00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:22.760
good. Things are a lot better. So thank god, you know things
12
00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:23.959
are good. Actually, I'm pretty
happy with the way things are going.
13
00:01:25.959 --> 00:01:29.120
Is it the new old? Is
it the new old new old new mix?
14
00:01:30.920 --> 00:01:36.480
This is the old new new old
new. I feel like I feel
15
00:01:36.519 --> 00:01:38.599
like we're just a couple of olds
in the news and an av select away
16
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:44.359
from an old Nintendo code. Nothing's
worse though than Dan. You would appreciate
17
00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:46.519
this. In Tray he knows and
even Raj back in the day. You
18
00:01:46.560 --> 00:01:49.200
know this too when I was on
a station called Hot one hundred when they
19
00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:53.200
decided to change the name so many
damn different times that at one point the
20
00:01:53.319 --> 00:01:57.719
moniker for that station was triple the
music. The new Hot one hundred always
21
00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:05.319
at least eighteen songs to row your
new music station, and remember it shows
22
00:02:05.319 --> 00:02:09.919
over. Yeah, it is imprinted
not only in your brain, right here
23
00:02:09.960 --> 00:02:15.400
in your heart. It's scarred.
That's what that is. Its card tissue
24
00:02:16.960 --> 00:02:21.240
came up with that. That's the
that's the strange part. And so it
25
00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:23.360
was like, so, who's got
ideas for what we should call it?
26
00:02:23.719 --> 00:02:24.919
Well, you say it every time. I'm like, it's only a four
27
00:02:24.960 --> 00:02:30.400
hour show, what do we do? And it was a pop station,
28
00:02:31.280 --> 00:02:36.199
uh, with a lean towards rhythmic, so it's not like you had a
29
00:02:36.199 --> 00:02:39.800
whole lot of intro time to be
able to say all that stuff before hitting
30
00:02:39.840 --> 00:02:42.800
the post of a song. Yeah, And they were like, well,
31
00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:45.360
and have good content too, so
figure it out, but don't stop the
32
00:02:45.439 --> 00:02:52.199
music. And I believe at one
point you had one of the general managers
33
00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:54.840
calling you up on the hotline because
you were doing like a throng Thursday or
34
00:02:54.840 --> 00:02:59.080
something, and their wife didn't like
it. Oh, no, hated it.
35
00:02:59.319 --> 00:03:00.800
No, I was doing it joke. I did five dirty like a
36
00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:05.599
dirty word. Oh, five words, it'll turn any woman on. And
37
00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:07.120
then I'd have the girls call in
and I'd say the words, and I
38
00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:09.400
leave him out on the air well. He called and he's like, well,
39
00:03:09.400 --> 00:03:12.319
my wife wants to know. And
I'm like, I can't tell your
40
00:03:12.319 --> 00:03:14.439
wife. I can't know. There's
no way I can't tell your wife.
41
00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:16.599
He's like, well, then i'll
just see you tomorrow morning. I was
42
00:03:16.639 --> 00:03:21.120
like, I'm not telling you then, and he pissed and he was like,
43
00:03:21.199 --> 00:03:23.319
oh, you know what, hang
up. But that's you know,
44
00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:24.879
you know how it was back in
those days. It was a different world.
45
00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:30.120
And it's weird because that's that's that's
sort of a you know, private
46
00:03:30.159 --> 00:03:34.680
parts Howard sternmo movie type of moment
for you. It's like, your content
47
00:03:34.800 --> 00:03:38.560
was compelling enough that the station manager's
wife wanted to know what you were saying,
48
00:03:38.800 --> 00:03:40.479
yeah, yeah, and then I
wouldn't tell her yeah, and and
49
00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:45.560
you wouldn't tell them, therefore prolonging
the bit for the listener. But the
50
00:03:45.599 --> 00:03:50.120
station manager at the time couldn't appreciate
it for what it was and instead was
51
00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:53.000
more concerned about what he was going
to have to tell his wife when he
52
00:03:53.039 --> 00:03:58.800
couldn't keep his afternoon jock in line
because his uh, his his rebel in
53
00:03:58.840 --> 00:04:01.039
the afternoon wouldn't tell him the secrets. Well, it was his widow ego.
54
00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:04.199
It hurt his widow ego. You
know that he that he wanted me
55
00:04:04.240 --> 00:04:06.759
to tell him. And by the
way, the stupid thing was, it
56
00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:10.280
was a dumb bit that I used
to do. There was no five words,
57
00:04:10.759 --> 00:04:13.319
so I'd get on the air and
I'd say, all right, react
58
00:04:13.360 --> 00:04:15.079
like I said something really dirty and
perverted, and the girls would go,
59
00:04:15.160 --> 00:04:17.480
oh my god, and I'd bleep
it out. Some people were like,
60
00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:21.120
what is he saying? But it
was a stupid like nineteen nineties you know
61
00:04:21.240 --> 00:04:25.759
radio bit they used to do.
It's like whatever, Yeah, at that
62
00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:29.279
point, it's a throwaway bit for
you, but you know what works,
63
00:04:29.399 --> 00:04:33.040
so you do it. And it
worked so well that it ensnared the GM's
64
00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:35.399
wife. Oh and I put him
on the air. That's what he was
65
00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:44.360
pissed about. Left that part out
that particular of all the he ranks as
66
00:04:44.360 --> 00:04:48.439
one of the dumbest people I ever
worked for. Will I need to stop
67
00:04:48.480 --> 00:04:53.959
you both right here, because I'm
gonna need you both to be more specific,
68
00:04:54.040 --> 00:04:57.319
because Trey, when you say he
was the dumbest general manager I've worked
69
00:04:57.319 --> 00:05:00.000
for, I mean I've got like
three or four in my head swirling around.
70
00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:04.560
It all blurs together. Oh okay, Yeah. You know what's funny
71
00:05:04.600 --> 00:05:08.000
is I never really talked to him
that much. The only time I had
72
00:05:08.040 --> 00:05:14.040
a really awkward interaction with that particular
GM is RPD at the time. Rest
73
00:05:14.079 --> 00:05:17.480
in peace to Dan Kylie, who
I really liked. He was a smart
74
00:05:17.480 --> 00:05:19.920
guy. He had his own addiction
problems, he had some he had some
75
00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:30.120
issues. Fell asleep during my contract
negotiations. That's because that's because well wait
76
00:05:30.120 --> 00:05:32.839
a second, Billy, when he
fell asleep, were you in his office
77
00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:38.199
in front of him? In front
just to paint a picture of you of
78
00:05:38.199 --> 00:05:46.439
what Dan looked like? He not
me, No, Dan, he kind
79
00:05:46.439 --> 00:05:48.959
of looked like a I don't skinny
Jerry Garcia that had stuck his finger in
80
00:05:49.000 --> 00:05:56.639
a light socket. Wow. Okay, what a visual what a visual spot
81
00:05:56.680 --> 00:06:00.560
on that's sery part. Yeah,
we were talking of it a series conversation.
82
00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:01.240
I'm like, you know, I
think we could get there. We're
83
00:06:01.279 --> 00:06:03.800
you know, we're close to where
we need to be, and I looked
84
00:06:03.839 --> 00:06:08.680
up and he's just like and I
was like, this has gotta be a
85
00:06:08.759 --> 00:06:11.519
joke. This has got like this
is not real life. And I look
86
00:06:11.519 --> 00:06:13.839
around. I'm like, what do
you do? You just get up and
87
00:06:13.839 --> 00:06:15.519
pretend it didn't happen, or do
you go, hey, excuse me,
88
00:06:15.560 --> 00:06:19.279
because at that point the contract negotiation
is over. Yeah, no it's not.
89
00:06:19.680 --> 00:06:24.040
That's what that's when. That's when
the negotiation ramps up. That's when
90
00:06:24.079 --> 00:06:30.399
you write down uh seven fifty per
year plus endorsements and appearances. You initial
91
00:06:30.439 --> 00:06:31.839
and then you take his arm,
put that, put the pen in the
92
00:06:31.839 --> 00:06:36.720
hand, and just kind of weekend
exactly. You weakened and bernies his hand
93
00:06:36.759 --> 00:06:40.639
and next thing, you know,
you got a huge ass contract. I
94
00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:43.319
should have. But I remember walking
out and I go, you know,
95
00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:45.639
I'm just gonna I'll come back later. Kind of made a joke about it,
96
00:06:45.639 --> 00:06:47.519
and Sea Bird, I think,
what's his name, Dave? Dave?
97
00:06:48.160 --> 00:06:50.120
Yeah, okay. He walked by
and goes, hey, how's it
98
00:06:50.199 --> 00:06:55.800
going? And I go, you
tell me and you at the BD and
99
00:06:55.879 --> 00:06:58.800
he goes, oh god, and
he just walked away and I go,
100
00:06:58.800 --> 00:07:02.399
all right, see you later.
I don't know what's going on. It
101
00:07:02.480 --> 00:07:05.240
is pretty cool, though, to
have a to have a contract in radio
102
00:07:05.319 --> 00:07:09.839
that was signed by your boss,
not an ink, but you know with
103
00:07:09.959 --> 00:07:13.399
drool, yeah, droolue. And
I was like, just let me.
104
00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:15.680
I couldn't even find the contract.
I don't even think he had it,
105
00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:16.759
like I think it was supposed to
be. You know, in radio,
106
00:07:16.759 --> 00:07:19.680
you're supposed to go back and forth
on a term sheet, like a negotiation
107
00:07:19.759 --> 00:07:23.439
sheet, and most businesses do this, and well radio used to. I
108
00:07:23.480 --> 00:07:26.920
don't know if they still do really, but I never saw a term sheet.
109
00:07:27.000 --> 00:07:29.720
It was usually some emails back and
forth, some awkward face to face
110
00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:31.800
meetings. Well, because they don't
tell the talent usually that there is a
111
00:07:31.920 --> 00:07:35.040
term sheet, you know that they
so they report to corporate. Well,
112
00:07:35.040 --> 00:07:38.680
I offered him this, and then
you know, he said this, and
113
00:07:38.759 --> 00:07:41.360
I said this, so they can
track what you did back and forth.
114
00:07:41.800 --> 00:07:45.920
Because I had a boss one time. Tell me John Cook, who you
115
00:07:45.920 --> 00:07:55.240
guys remember? He's another one?
God does everyone around us. I think
116
00:07:55.240 --> 00:08:01.920
it's time for some for some self
reflection. I was totally stupid. That
117
00:08:01.000 --> 00:08:03.759
won't save you. Yeah, yeah, we might not get off this pad
118
00:08:05.040 --> 00:08:09.680
podcast alive on his hands but I
had him one time. He was telling
119
00:08:09.720 --> 00:08:11.920
me like, I guess I didn't
know what I was doing when I was
120
00:08:11.000 --> 00:08:13.639
negotiating, and I'm like, well, just how about this? And it
121
00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:18.120
was he was a good guy.
So he literally was like, hey,
122
00:08:18.279 --> 00:08:22.920
you know you might want to go
up and I got He goes, yeah,
123
00:08:22.399 --> 00:08:24.800
ask for more because I'm going to
write it down here and showed me
124
00:08:24.839 --> 00:08:26.959
the sheet and I go. He
goes, then I'm gonna say no,
125
00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:31.560
and then I'm gonna get you here
and I go, are we doing this?
126
00:08:31.759 --> 00:08:35.519
Okay? Sure? And he's you're
asking for way too little and I
127
00:08:35.600 --> 00:08:37.519
was like, oh, I didn't
know that. Okay, cool, I
128
00:08:37.559 --> 00:08:41.279
want more? So I got more
of a great Yeah, somebody would do
129
00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:48.519
that. Yeah. Type radio manager
is to say it's rare is a massive
130
00:08:48.639 --> 00:08:52.440
understatement. Yeah, it's like the
I don't know if you guys ever watched
131
00:08:52.480 --> 00:08:56.679
PONND Stars, but there's sometimes every
now and again there's a moment where the
132
00:08:56.679 --> 00:08:58.480
guy's like, somebody bring something in, like, so, what do you
133
00:08:58.519 --> 00:09:00.799
want for it? And he's like, just ten, Granny, it's probably
134
00:09:00.799 --> 00:09:01.919
worth about one hundred, so let's
start there. And I'm like, oh
135
00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:05.559
man, okay, so you had
that moment. Yeah, I had that
136
00:09:05.639 --> 00:09:09.480
moment, and normally that doesn't exist. They'll just take you for whatever you're
137
00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:13.159
gonna get. Oh, this idiot
here, because that's happened in many contracts.
138
00:09:13.159 --> 00:09:15.320
When I was first starting off,
I was like, I mean,
139
00:09:15.360 --> 00:09:20.240
I'll work for some a drink tab. Cool. I'm like, oh wait,
140
00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:22.240
I should get paid for this,
Okay, cool. Yeah, that's
141
00:09:22.240 --> 00:09:31.159
why there's no Indians in radio,
because we are taking that deal. Yeah
142
00:09:31.399 --> 00:09:33.120
no, and you're not wrong.
I mean I look like when I was
143
00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:35.639
starting out, like at the time
when you and I met, I think
144
00:09:35.679 --> 00:09:39.159
I was making like like ten bucks
an hour, and part of part of
145
00:09:39.159 --> 00:09:41.159
my agreement wasn't a contract. It
was just all right, you're gonna make
146
00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:45.320
ten bucks an hour and you can
have all the breakroom pizza you can eat.
147
00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:48.279
Yeah. Yeah, oh yeah.
That's when I was first starting on.
148
00:09:48.399 --> 00:09:50.200
I was like, okay, They're
like, oh no, what they'll
149
00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:52.480
do is in radio, they'll promise
you endorsements. But you're gonna get a
150
00:09:52.559 --> 00:09:56.480
ton of endorsements, so don't worry. Okay. It's like, oh,
151
00:09:56.519 --> 00:09:58.360
okay, cool, and then you're
a year later you're like, wait,
152
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:03.360
where are all these endorsements you know, you're like, okay, great,
153
00:10:03.440 --> 00:10:05.000
but by the way, that still
happens. But cool, oh yeah,
154
00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:09.360
that's there. There are some things
with radio that that are forever. Uh.
155
00:10:09.440 --> 00:10:15.879
One is uh mediocrity in in some
cases, and uh the other is
156
00:10:16.519 --> 00:10:22.519
the talent being promised or producers whatever
it is, being promised endorsements and appearances
157
00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:26.679
to make up the difference in salary
that they were hoping. Yeah, oh
158
00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:28.360
yeah, yeah, don't worry about
it. You're gonna get endorsements, and
159
00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:31.159
you're like, oh cool, no. Yeah. It's like in the comic
160
00:10:31.200 --> 00:10:33.720
world, though, you don't worry
about it. You're gonna get a bunch
161
00:10:33.759 --> 00:10:37.840
of corporate gigs, that's what and
that's where money is. And you're like,
162
00:10:37.000 --> 00:10:39.440
oh, like how much is it? Oh, it's a ton,
163
00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:43.159
don't worry about it. And then
you're eating chicken tenders, going hey,
164
00:10:43.159 --> 00:10:48.240
you can't wait for these corporate yeah. Or it's like when you DJ they'd
165
00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:50.480
be like, well, this is
gonna be a great gig back exposure,
166
00:10:50.759 --> 00:10:54.799
exposure, I mean, the exposure
is fantastic, and you do it,
167
00:10:54.840 --> 00:10:56.600
you'd be like yeah, okay,
cool, yeah, you're right. Yeah.
168
00:10:56.639 --> 00:10:58.879
I got to a point. Where's
the thing though, is that my
169
00:11:00.480 --> 00:11:05.360
mortgage lender doesn't doesn't take exposure is
pain. Yeah, I got. I
170
00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:07.279
got to the point where they go, you know, we'll give you so
171
00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:11.480
much exposure, like people die from
it. People die from exposure. So's
172
00:11:11.519 --> 00:11:15.360
yeah, I don't want to be
exposed. I don't want to be exposed
173
00:11:15.399 --> 00:11:18.480
anymore. It's true though, you
know, radio has changed over the years,
174
00:11:18.480 --> 00:11:22.840
but the days where we were doing
those times back in the day were
175
00:11:22.879 --> 00:11:24.559
just incredible. And I was talking
about it with someone the other day and
176
00:11:24.559 --> 00:11:28.159
I was like, you know,
we might not have been making a ton
177
00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:30.879
of money, we might not have
been, you know, at the best
178
00:11:31.399 --> 00:11:35.200
stations, but there was something magical
about it. I don't know. Maybe
179
00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:37.679
it's because we were just we didn't
know any better. You know, I
180
00:11:37.759 --> 00:11:41.399
know what it was because at that
time, it was you were working for
181
00:11:41.440 --> 00:11:43.679
Hot one hundred, slash Wild one
hundred. We were next door in the
182
00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:46.759
same building working at Live one oh
five three, a station that kind of
183
00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:50.879
caught lightning in a bottle for a
handful of years. And that feeling that
184
00:11:50.960 --> 00:11:54.759
you're talking about that we all had
inside that building, whether you worked at
185
00:11:54.799 --> 00:11:58.159
Live one o five to three or
Hot one hundred, Hot one hundred.
186
00:11:58.600 --> 00:12:03.039
It was the black Mold. Yeah, yeah, that's what it was.
187
00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:07.639
It because it was high. Yeah, we were all high on mold spores.
188
00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:13.200
It was basically a prequel to the
Last of Us. Inside that radio
189
00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:16.120
station about four miles away from downtown. I'm gonna get I'm gonna order you
190
00:12:16.159 --> 00:12:20.399
guys the book on Messa. That's
what I'm gonna get you guys. We
191
00:12:20.559 --> 00:12:22.639
guys need now. I think we
should be like you know those commercials that
192
00:12:22.679 --> 00:12:26.360
come on when you're watching prices right, like you're entitled to a class action
193
00:12:26.519 --> 00:12:31.080
loss. I feel like we should
be entitled. Oh we should every time,
194
00:12:31.559 --> 00:12:35.440
whether it's miso thilioma as beestis or
if you know, my favorite one
195
00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:39.320
is. And I think this also
would apply to us. If we've had
196
00:12:39.399 --> 00:12:43.960
issues with our vaginal mesh, we
need to contact this attorney. And I
197
00:12:43.000 --> 00:12:48.360
guarantee you we've all got those issues
stemming from that building on John you guys
198
00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:50.159
use did you guys use talcum powder
at any point? Because we can't get
199
00:12:50.200 --> 00:12:52.559
you guys on that one. We
couldn't afford that, we couldn't know where
200
00:12:52.600 --> 00:12:56.840
that, we can't afford anything.
But there was so much a best rats
201
00:12:58.039 --> 00:13:00.679
that building was maybe one of the
Well, I don't know, because we've
202
00:13:00.679 --> 00:13:03.759
had rats in our building now,
so maybe they followed me. I don't
203
00:13:03.840 --> 00:13:05.759
know. I don't know what's going
on, but that building was disgusting because
204
00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:09.039
they would run right in front of
you. They didn't even care. Bill,
205
00:13:09.200 --> 00:13:11.360
it's not you, it's not you, Billy, Okay, good,
206
00:13:11.399 --> 00:13:16.399
thank you. Keep telling it's others. Good. It's just the sales department.
207
00:13:16.720 --> 00:13:20.759
Yeah, well, and it's it's
kind of weird though, because of
208
00:13:20.799 --> 00:13:26.960
all the powdery substances that were floating
around that building back in the early to
209
00:13:26.080 --> 00:13:31.440
mid two thousands, the ones that
didn't kill you, killed Billy's bosses.
210
00:13:31.159 --> 00:13:37.759
Yeah. I mean that's just facts. That's just simple facts right there.
211
00:13:39.600 --> 00:13:41.240
Like my first day on the job, and this wasn't even the same program
212
00:13:41.240 --> 00:13:45.720
director. When I first got to
Dallas, they forgot about me. They
213
00:13:45.720 --> 00:13:46.720
were like, hey, we're going
to put you up in this holiday inn
214
00:13:46.879 --> 00:13:50.480
for about a week because we can't
go on the air yet. And I
215
00:13:50.519 --> 00:13:52.840
go, okay, cool, I
mean whatever, I'm like twenty years old.
216
00:13:54.039 --> 00:13:56.759
I go in this holiday inn by
Mockingbird on Mockingbird by the Airport by
217
00:13:56.799 --> 00:14:00.399
love Field, and I'm like a
couple of days in im like, does
218
00:14:00.440 --> 00:14:03.039
this guy know I'm still I'm like, I'm here, I haven't met my
219
00:14:03.080 --> 00:14:03.919
boss. And I call him.
I go, hey, dude, you
220
00:14:03.919 --> 00:14:05.519
know I'm here. What are you
want me to do? He goes,
221
00:14:05.960 --> 00:14:11.519
oh, ship, that's right,
because you were supposed to be unveiled,
222
00:14:11.639 --> 00:14:16.840
right. Yeah, Like I moved
across the country. I drove my Chrysler
223
00:14:16.919 --> 00:14:18.879
Sea bring down here. Wow.
Oh yeah, I had one. It
224
00:14:18.919 --> 00:14:24.279
wasn't I couldn't afford that, but
I made it. It made it,
225
00:14:24.679 --> 00:14:26.679
and I could not. He forgot. He goes, I'll come pick you
226
00:14:26.759 --> 00:14:31.840
up. My bad, My bad? Then do you then? Do you
227
00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:37.159
fast forward? You've really arrived.
You're at contract negotiations with another PD and
228
00:14:37.440 --> 00:14:41.120
he passes out at the test.
And chances are had you lifted it up
229
00:14:41.120 --> 00:14:43.799
and looked at the contract sheet,
it would have just been like a Garfield
230
00:14:43.879 --> 00:14:48.559
cartoon if I don't even know if
that would have been the case. No,
231
00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:50.240
he literally, and then they picked
me up, and they forgot to
232
00:14:50.279 --> 00:14:54.399
fire the other show. So when
I walked in, the other show was
233
00:14:54.440 --> 00:14:56.679
there, and he goes, oh, God, just give me a minute,
234
00:14:56.720 --> 00:15:00.240
and I goes, no, this
is not really happening, and he
235
00:15:00.320 --> 00:15:07.679
walks into the studio, fires everybody
and goes, you're good. I want
236
00:15:07.720 --> 00:15:11.240
you to remember this story if at
any point in your life, as you're
237
00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:15.759
hearing this, you think, you
know what I'd like to get into radio.
238
00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:22.000
Yeah. If my son asked me. My son's like, you know,
239
00:15:22.080 --> 00:15:24.480
radio does look fun, I'm like, it sucks. Don't do it.
240
00:15:24.679 --> 00:15:28.440
Yeah, and trust me, you're
your future has Your future is brighter
241
00:15:28.559 --> 00:15:33.159
if you were to get into a
seabring and drive into the sunset. Yeah.
242
00:15:33.759 --> 00:15:37.279
I got told once. I said, if you uh, if you
243
00:15:37.320 --> 00:15:43.440
have the chance to kill yourself or
good morning radio jump. Speaking of which,
244
00:15:43.000 --> 00:15:46.240
Billy, how are you on the
edge of that cliff? Well,
245
00:15:46.360 --> 00:15:56.200
I'll see you later. You're listening
to the Treehouse visitors online that Treehouse on
246
00:15:56.360 --> 00:16:07.159
air dot com. Let's get Jaqueline
from Brooks Plumbing into the Treehouse now two
247
00:16:07.200 --> 00:16:10.559
one, four, three six eight
thirty eight thirty eight. That's the phone
248
00:16:10.600 --> 00:16:12.759
number you will need for any and
all of your plumbing wants and needs,
249
00:16:12.759 --> 00:16:17.000
including including emergencies. They will help
you with that as well. The website
250
00:16:17.000 --> 00:16:22.440
Brooks Plumbingtexas dot com. I read
recently a headline where a man was referred
251
00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:26.799
to as Pickleman. The origin story
not so great. It's because he stuck
252
00:16:26.840 --> 00:16:30.120
his head in Nevada Pickles, but
still the headline Pickleman. And I immediately
253
00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:33.799
thought, oh my god, if
there was a superhero that could steal my
254
00:16:33.919 --> 00:16:37.840
wife away from me, it wouldn't
be Batman. It'd be Pickleman, because
255
00:16:37.840 --> 00:16:41.799
that's how much she loves pickles.
Is there a superhero that might steal you
256
00:16:41.840 --> 00:16:45.600
away from your colby? It would
have to be a combination of I want
257
00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:51.759
Deadpool's humor, but in like one
of the Batman with nipples bodies. I
258
00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:56.840
love the Batman with nipples Jean like
Timeline. For me, though, it's
259
00:16:56.879 --> 00:17:03.519
it's Val Kilmer, like I love
that Val Kilmer, like that region of
260
00:17:03.519 --> 00:17:08.519
his career, those years where he's
Tombstone, Batman the Saint. So I
261
00:17:08.559 --> 00:17:12.319
want Val Kilmer Batman, and I
want his like sweetness, but I want
262
00:17:12.359 --> 00:17:17.480
the Deadpool humor. Just wished into
one And I got to tell you this
263
00:17:17.519 --> 00:17:19.039
is a broad statement for all men. All men go watch The Saint.
264
00:17:19.359 --> 00:17:22.440
To a certain degree, I think
that's what every woman wants. We want
265
00:17:22.440 --> 00:17:26.640
somebody that's a protector, but we
want there to be a sense of adventure.
266
00:17:26.759 --> 00:17:30.160
I also commend that film for doing
something no other film I don't think
267
00:17:30.279 --> 00:17:34.880
is ever done a nuclear physicist wearing
knee socks and being taken seriously. And
268
00:17:34.920 --> 00:17:40.799
the other thing was Val Kilmer's The
Saint made driving a Volvo look cool.
269
00:17:41.200 --> 00:17:44.400
He could have done anything I think
in that movie and made it cool.
270
00:17:44.400 --> 00:17:47.440
But it's Val Kilmer. So this
is why I want Batman with nipples.
271
00:17:47.480 --> 00:17:51.640
Val Kilmer, you know, to
come fistfight Colby and you're just be sitting
272
00:17:51.680 --> 00:17:53.839
on the sideline eating some popcorn.
Cheer for both of them. I don't
273
00:17:53.880 --> 00:17:56.279
know who I want to win.
Go guys, go, It doesn't matter
274
00:17:56.319 --> 00:17:59.960

treehouse eight three three COOKDFW for your
free roof inspection the website COOKDFW dot com.
292
00:19:18.160 --> 00:19:22.720
Daniel, in your younger years,
were you ever a spring breaker?
293
00:19:22.880 --> 00:19:26.440
Dan? I was a big time
spring breaker when I was young. I
294
00:19:26.559 --> 00:19:33.519
tell you what. My junior and
senior year and me and three other guys
295
00:19:33.880 --> 00:19:37.319
drove down to South Padre Island,
and in that time that was like one
296
00:19:37.359 --> 00:19:42.960
of the most popular places in the
United States to have spring break. Matter
297
00:19:44.000 --> 00:19:48.200
of fact, MTV had a stage
set up on the beach. We stayed
298
00:19:48.279 --> 00:19:53.480
at the Radison one year, right
outside from where that stage was, and
299
00:19:53.559 --> 00:19:56.519
it was just like, I don't
know how to explain it. I mean,
300
00:19:56.519 --> 00:20:00.440
this little bitty island that you know
probably does and have more than five
301
00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:04.880
hundred people that live there, all
of a sudden got twenty thousand kids coming
302
00:20:04.880 --> 00:20:08.359
into it within like a two week
span, and it was just in sanity.
303
00:20:08.400 --> 00:20:11.880
You're staying up until five or six
o'clock in the morning, you go
304
00:20:11.920 --> 00:20:14.720
home and take a nap, and
then you get up the next day and
305
00:20:14.759 --> 00:20:18.640
you're out on the beach by noon
and it's just you start drinking. You
306
00:20:18.640 --> 00:20:22.680
don't stop. It's like, if
you stop being drunk, you will not
307
00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:26.680
have a good time. I think
you just found your new T shirt.
308
00:20:27.559 --> 00:20:32.799

com uh rajah to take off.
He had to hit the road to get
327
00:22:02.640 --> 00:22:07.720
to get a gig in. And
so Billy the kid from the New Old
328
00:22:07.799 --> 00:22:12.799
Old, New Old in Mixed one
or two nine morning shows graciously been abducted
329
00:22:12.839 --> 00:22:17.039
by the Treehouse to step around for
for an additional segment. And we're gonna
330
00:22:17.039 --> 00:22:22.160
make it worth your while, Billy. All right, So I know that
331
00:22:22.480 --> 00:22:25.279
being the host of a morning show
finally. Good job. By the way,
332
00:22:25.440 --> 00:22:29.039
thank you that you are up to
date with many current events, especially
333
00:22:29.039 --> 00:22:34.000
those current events in and around Dallas
Fort Worth. So I feel highly confident
334
00:22:34.279 --> 00:22:37.640
that you heard about the poo at
the Zoo that the Fort Worth Zoo did
335
00:22:37.680 --> 00:22:44.839
around Valentine's Day. And I feel
like there's an opportunity for you, Billy
336
00:22:44.920 --> 00:22:51.240
and your producer Yeah Pooh Yeah,
to do some serious working together. And
337
00:22:51.480 --> 00:22:56.720
whether that's pooh with a shovel at
the Fort Worth Zoo or whatever, a
338
00:22:56.759 --> 00:23:00.240
weird zanything you can come up with. I just maybe at the end of
339
00:23:00.279 --> 00:23:02.599
the day, I think, because
I know you like to do things to
340
00:23:02.640 --> 00:23:04.319
poo in all uses in time,
so I think that I love it.
341
00:23:04.880 --> 00:23:07.880
I love it. I'd be happy
to I don't care if he likes it.
342
00:23:07.920 --> 00:23:11.599
I think it's a great idea.
Uh. The other day he was
343
00:23:11.079 --> 00:23:15.039
tramping around in high heels, which
I thoroughly enjoyed. He we did see
344
00:23:15.079 --> 00:23:19.200
that national anthem. So yeah,
something, this makes sense. And if
345
00:23:19.240 --> 00:23:23.319
you don't know, this is where
they could buy some Pooh and dedicate Pooh
346
00:23:23.359 --> 00:23:26.920
from the zoo to their acts or
whoever they wanted to, right exactly,
347
00:23:26.960 --> 00:23:30.920
that's it. He so needs to
go to the zoo and shovel poop and
348
00:23:32.240 --> 00:23:34.359
uh, maybe that's what you can
do. You can arrange with Forward Zoo
349
00:23:36.000 --> 00:23:42.519
to have a Pooh exhibit there.
It is. See, this is the
350
00:23:42.559 --> 00:23:47.359
next big morning radio thing is gonna
got and you heard it. Can't wait
351
00:23:47.400 --> 00:23:52.559
to get canceled. You can't wait. This is gonna be great. So
352
00:23:52.599 --> 00:23:56.359
you're saying, let's put Pooh in
a cage and just say, okay,
353
00:23:56.400 --> 00:24:00.839
our next exhibit is Pooh, No
billy, not a cage, jesus.
354
00:24:00.079 --> 00:24:04.559
Oh, you know, like a
like a nice zu an exhibit, not
355
00:24:04.680 --> 00:24:08.160
a prisoner billy. Oh my god, Well listen, I don't know what
356
00:24:08.160 --> 00:24:11.160
you're what you're thinking. I'm trying
to get in your mind here, but
357
00:24:11.160 --> 00:24:15.200
I'm down for either one. So
I mean, well, I mean just
358
00:24:15.440 --> 00:24:18.279
for the show's sake, you know, we have him done. He's done
359
00:24:18.279 --> 00:24:22.920
some stupid stuff over the years.
But listen that to me, anything that
360
00:24:22.960 --> 00:24:26.680
involves the zoo I'm good with.
Yeah, I think it'd be interesting.
361
00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:29.640
It'd be an interesting thing where you
can do it. Hey, it's you
362
00:24:29.640 --> 00:24:33.599
know, it's pooh at the zoo
and friends and families with children. You
363
00:24:33.599 --> 00:24:38.480
know, you could go, could
go see what a radio producer looks like
364
00:24:38.599 --> 00:24:42.599
in its almost natural habitat. Yeah. Almost. Is that the same zoo
365
00:24:42.599 --> 00:24:47.319
that just happened that the silver back
y? Yeah, I don't know.
366
00:24:47.319 --> 00:24:51.599
If him there, he might die. Yeah, they're zoo keepers. Only
367
00:24:51.680 --> 00:24:55.200
had a bit of a pr problem. So what was that all about?
368
00:24:55.279 --> 00:24:59.440
This is where the two trainers were
in with the silver back gorilla and it
369
00:24:59.480 --> 00:25:00.640
was like, oh my bad,
I let the cake. Well, how
370
00:25:00.680 --> 00:25:06.599
do you accidentally leave the gorilla out? So they explained it that because they
371
00:25:06.640 --> 00:25:12.039
forgot to put a bell on him
during feeding, they're supposed to go from
372
00:25:12.119 --> 00:25:18.119
one enclosure to another, and they
forgot to move said gorilla into the other
373
00:25:18.200 --> 00:25:22.559
enclosure, and they were going in
there doing some cleaning and then realized that.
374
00:25:22.640 --> 00:25:27.200
Oops. Yeah, see that right. There is why I can never
375
00:25:27.240 --> 00:25:32.359
be allowed to work at the zoo, because if you are in any way
376
00:25:32.400 --> 00:25:37.400
forgetful, you should not work there. I have the brain of warm putty
377
00:25:37.599 --> 00:25:42.319
when it comes to memory. So
I would be dead at the zoo inside
378
00:25:42.359 --> 00:25:45.079
of five minutes. Oh yeah,
no, I would be dead. I'd
379
00:25:45.160 --> 00:25:48.200
kill somebody else. So by accident, that's the part that I would hate,
380
00:25:48.240 --> 00:25:51.240
you know what I mean, forget
I'd be the one that forgot the
381
00:25:51.440 --> 00:25:52.960
Oh oh you're still in there.
Oh, I just let him lose my
382
00:25:53.079 --> 00:25:59.079
bad. I can't remember if I
shampooed my hair in the shower. Oh,
383
00:25:59.079 --> 00:26:02.039
I don't remember anything. Yeah,
I'm the worst about it too,
384
00:26:02.079 --> 00:26:04.200
So I get it. I would
be a mess. But that somebody better
385
00:26:04.200 --> 00:26:10.279
have gotten fired for that. Well
maybe that's the other part of the interview
386
00:26:10.359 --> 00:26:14.079
process when you go to apply for
working at a zoo, is they ask
387
00:26:14.160 --> 00:26:15.480
you do you have a good memory? Yes? You do? Okay,
388
00:26:15.480 --> 00:26:18.279
good? And then and then the
follow up question is how fast are you?
389
00:26:18.359 --> 00:26:22.519
How fast are you? Well,
that's the thing about it, because
390
00:26:22.519 --> 00:26:25.960
you know, like I'm terrified of
bears. Thankfully there's not many bears in
391
00:26:26.000 --> 00:26:27.920
Texas. Although I just read an
article that more bears are coming down this
392
00:26:29.039 --> 00:26:33.839
way from Oklahoma, which pisses me
off. Either way, black bears June
393
00:26:33.880 --> 00:26:38.039
must be a horrible month for you. Yeah, I hate the bear round
394
00:26:38.160 --> 00:26:44.599
up. Yeah, it's terrifying.
I won't even go to Colorado, Like,
395
00:26:44.799 --> 00:26:49.319
I'm not going anywhere outdoors where there's
bears. People are like other kind
396
00:26:49.359 --> 00:26:55.400
of bears. Oh that bear.
No, those bears in June. Yeah,
397
00:26:55.440 --> 00:26:59.079
those bears I'm fine with. But
it's really it's really interesting when those
398
00:26:59.079 --> 00:27:03.359
two crowds come to get there at
the same time. Now, that's something
399
00:27:03.400 --> 00:27:06.519
I want to watch. But all
these different things you have to do with
400
00:27:06.519 --> 00:27:07.960
the bears, Like grizzly bears,
you're supposed to do something. See I
401
00:27:08.000 --> 00:27:11.720
already forgot, Like if you encounter
grizzly bears, you're supposed to make yourself
402
00:27:11.759 --> 00:27:15.920
as big as possible and like scream
hey bear, no yeah, no,
403
00:27:17.000 --> 00:27:25.359
yes, yeah, you're wrong.
Is brown as down and black attack black
404
00:27:25.400 --> 00:27:29.359
fight back grizzly Yeah, you don't
fight back, but you're trying to make
405
00:27:29.400 --> 00:27:33.039
yourself look bigger because generally they're just
trying to protect something, so it'll make
406
00:27:33.079 --> 00:27:37.200
it not worth it. But no, grizzlies, you're supposed to go make
407
00:27:37.200 --> 00:27:40.279
yourself as big as possible. See, I would think that's correct. I'm
408
00:27:40.279 --> 00:27:45.279
pretty sure it's brown down and black
attack like verbal kind of thing, because
409
00:27:45.640 --> 00:27:48.440
I mean, really, if if
you if you stand like if you're face
410
00:27:48.480 --> 00:27:51.400
to face with a grizzly bear,
right and you stand up and go,
411
00:27:52.440 --> 00:27:56.839
if you're face if you're face to
face, you've already lost. I'm knowing
412
00:27:56.839 --> 00:28:00.400
about as the bear is charging you
with a grizzly you're supposed to make yourself
413
00:28:00.440 --> 00:28:07.440
as big as possible and screen at
it to try it. He is doing
414
00:28:07.480 --> 00:28:11.440
that. There's actually there's videos that
I don't think the physically, I don't
415
00:28:11.480 --> 00:28:15.880
think the human body could physically when
when a grizzly bear is charging yet you
416
00:28:17.359 --> 00:28:22.160
spread eagle roar the thirty five miles
an hour and they're fourteen hundred pounds and
417
00:28:22.200 --> 00:28:25.960
they're gonna be like, I'm gonna
stand What am I gonna do here?
418
00:28:26.519 --> 00:28:27.880
I will send you all the video. There's actually a video of this that
419
00:28:27.920 --> 00:28:32.960
happened, and they did this and
the bear just runs off. Are you
420
00:28:33.160 --> 00:28:37.440
serious? Yes, I'm dead serious. This is they say with grizzlies,
421
00:28:37.480 --> 00:28:41.720
you are supposed to make yourself as
big as possible. Like there are some
422
00:28:41.759 --> 00:28:45.640
bears, yeah, play dead everything, but grizzlies make yourself big and loud,
423
00:28:45.880 --> 00:28:48.720
and they don't. They actually they
don't like contacts. So the theory
424
00:28:48.880 --> 00:28:52.480
is is that if they're charging you, they're trying to like it's typically a
425
00:28:52.519 --> 00:28:56.400
mom trying to protect their cubs.
They don't really want to fight, and
426
00:28:56.440 --> 00:28:57.559
so if it looks like it's going
to be a challenge, they will go
427
00:28:57.599 --> 00:29:02.519
away. Not getting big with a
bear. I'm crying. I'm not.
428
00:29:02.640 --> 00:29:04.160
I'm not, you know what.
I I don't think in my life I
429
00:29:04.160 --> 00:29:07.519
will ever be in a situation where
I'm really going to be in danger of
430
00:29:07.519 --> 00:29:11.640
being attacked by a grizzly bear.
Damn it, you said grizzly I was
431
00:29:11.680 --> 00:29:18.160
gonna say. I was just gonna
suggest you move, Trey, because you're
432
00:29:18.319 --> 00:29:22.799
you're you're in danger right now.
Yeah, Trey, whatever you do,
433
00:29:22.799 --> 00:29:29.440
don't look behind you, play dad, hurry Okay, just a quick Google
434
00:29:29.440 --> 00:29:33.200
search how to survive a grizzly bear
attack brown slash grizzly Bears. If you
435
00:29:33.240 --> 00:29:37.079
are attacked by a brown slash grizzly
bear, leave your pack on and play
436
00:29:37.160 --> 00:29:41.799
dead. Lay flat on your stomach
with your hands clasped behind your neck,
437
00:29:41.920 --> 00:29:44.359
spread your legs to make it harder
for the bear to turn you over.
438
00:29:44.799 --> 00:29:48.839
I'm not and remain still until the
bear leaves the area. Not talking about
439
00:29:48.839 --> 00:29:52.359
attacking. I'm talking about if I
so I should, if you're getting charged
440
00:29:52.359 --> 00:29:56.359
by a bear, act act big. You see all these rules, all
441
00:29:56.400 --> 00:29:59.400
these rules. Do you think anybody's
gonna remember this as you're panicking because there's
442
00:29:59.400 --> 00:30:02.920
a bear bre eating down your throat? All these all these rules and I'm
443
00:30:02.960 --> 00:30:06.200
just dead. I'm just gonna die. I'm just gonna cry and die.
444
00:30:07.559 --> 00:30:11.640
Probably probably what yourself too. Oh, I'm asking myself immediately. Can we
445
00:30:11.680 --> 00:30:14.200
swear? Yeah? Yeah, yeah
you can't. Oh yeah, good ship,
446
00:30:14.279 --> 00:30:15.440
I'm shipping myself. That feels good. I'm saying, I'm Mike,
447
00:30:15.480 --> 00:30:19.079
I'm a ship myself. Now.
That's gonna be the only thing I played
448
00:30:19.079 --> 00:30:26.920
from the promo for the show.
Really shit hisself, no no reason why.
449
00:30:26.359 --> 00:30:29.119
Yeah, we're not, we're not. We're not having Billy the Kid
450
00:30:29.160 --> 00:30:32.880
back inside the tree. He just
shit everywhere. Yeah, you know,
451
00:30:33.599 --> 00:30:36.119
you never know, you know,
I've always found that interesting, you know,
452
00:30:36.200 --> 00:30:37.920
like in movies and stuff, or
you hear stories about people that are
453
00:30:38.000 --> 00:30:44.240
so scared that they pee or they
poop themselves. I must be the exact
454
00:30:44.279 --> 00:30:48.079
opposite of that, because everything on
me just gets sucked back up inside.
455
00:30:48.119 --> 00:30:51.079
I just retract. Oh no,
I'm shipped myself being scared before. You've
456
00:30:51.079 --> 00:30:52.519
never know. I have literally Mike
Hill's house in sixth grade. I've watched
457
00:30:52.519 --> 00:30:56.720
a scary movie and literally ship myself. I still feel bad about it.
458
00:30:56.880 --> 00:30:59.000
My mom had to pick me up. It was awful. Is that why
459
00:30:59.000 --> 00:31:02.279
you had to leave Detroit and move
to Dallas? I was running from my
460
00:31:02.480 --> 00:31:07.160
reputation of shitting everywhere I went.
Oh, I wanted to ask you about
461
00:31:07.200 --> 00:31:11.279
this because we're all about the same
age, speaking of shooting yourself. Yeah,
462
00:31:11.480 --> 00:31:17.759
have you reached the age or have
you reached the level of maturity where
463
00:31:17.880 --> 00:31:22.480
you're disappointed in the toilet paper purchase? Because that happened to me recently,
464
00:31:22.759 --> 00:31:27.480
and it's it's a realization I didn't
I didn't enjoy because I'd gone to the
465
00:31:27.519 --> 00:31:33.599
bulk store and I got the toilet
paper that was by toilet paper in bulk.
466
00:31:34.000 --> 00:31:37.680
Awful. Yeah, decisions. First
of all, your your assholes too
467
00:31:37.720 --> 00:31:41.519
old for that. You know that
you know you can't you at this age,
468
00:31:41.559 --> 00:31:44.880
you treat yourself right. And one
of those things you pamper is your
469
00:31:44.880 --> 00:31:48.279
butthole. And and here's the thing
I I you know, it had been
470
00:31:48.319 --> 00:31:52.519
a long time since I had slummed
it with some cheap toilet paper, and
471
00:31:52.839 --> 00:31:57.839
I didn't fully inspect the packaging.
Instead of getting you know, ironically,
472
00:31:57.920 --> 00:32:01.240
the bare toilet paper, you know, the sharman. Instead of getting that,
473
00:32:01.440 --> 00:32:06.319
I got the stuff that's you know, also has the name of some
474
00:32:06.799 --> 00:32:10.079
guy, and it's I didn't.
I didn't look closely enough to see that
475
00:32:10.160 --> 00:32:16.039
it's barely one ply. And and
the thing that really sucks about this is,
476
00:32:16.359 --> 00:32:21.240
I mean, sure I saved like
eleven dollars on sixty four rolls of
477
00:32:22.799 --> 00:32:28.319
the word. Now I'm stuck with
sixty four rolls throwing out I mean translucent
478
00:32:28.640 --> 00:32:34.839
toilet paper. And the rolls are
so thick they never go away. I've
479
00:32:34.920 --> 00:32:37.200
gone I thought I've gone through like
four of these roles. There's still sixty
480
00:32:37.240 --> 00:32:40.240
three left in the cupboard. Throw
them in the ocean. Right now,
481
00:32:40.279 --> 00:32:44.440
you're by the ocean. Throw them
in the ocean and go get some charman.
482
00:32:44.559 --> 00:32:46.519
What are you doing with your life? You know better than that I
483
00:32:46.519 --> 00:32:49.799
don't like to be wasteable, Billy. I know, well, yeah,
484
00:32:49.799 --> 00:32:52.279
but you're not wasting. First of
all, you gotta appreciate your ass and
485
00:32:52.319 --> 00:32:54.200
you're pinky, because you know a
pinky's gonna slip through that little one ply.
486
00:32:55.079 --> 00:32:59.200
You don't. You don't know me, Yeah I do. You don't
487
00:32:59.200 --> 00:33:02.480
never wipe. Know what my pininky's
been through. Yeah, I know it's
488
00:33:02.519 --> 00:33:08.119
been through that toilet paper. You
gotta pamper yourself. There's certain things gonna
489
00:33:08.119 --> 00:33:10.599
take care of when you get older. I don't care. That's one thing.
490
00:33:10.720 --> 00:33:15.440
I could be dirt poor and I'm
gonna spend money on toilet paper.
491
00:33:15.559 --> 00:33:17.640
You gotta be boogie about your toilet
paper. And that's and that's why I
492
00:33:17.640 --> 00:33:21.519
wanted to ask you about it,
because I think we're all about it because
493
00:33:21.559 --> 00:33:24.000
I I had. It was a
valuable lesson I had to uh to teach
494
00:33:24.039 --> 00:33:28.119
myself, and I'll never make that
mistake again. I'm with you, Billy.
495
00:33:28.200 --> 00:33:30.799
I'm never going to buy a cheap
toilet paper. No. Really,
496
00:33:30.839 --> 00:33:32.400
you have to do more than just
toilet paper, though. You really have
497
00:33:32.440 --> 00:33:37.440
to do wet wipes. So you
have to do wet wipes and the Sharman
498
00:33:37.559 --> 00:33:40.119
I do dude wipes. I've got
those as well. Do those? So
499
00:33:40.240 --> 00:33:45.359
you like, do do wipes toilet
paper? Finish up with the dude wipe?
500
00:33:45.559 --> 00:33:47.799
Really? Yeah? Oh so you're
bookending your wipe. See what I
501
00:33:47.839 --> 00:33:52.880
did was I used the toilet paper
and then I finished with then I finished
502
00:33:52.880 --> 00:33:59.599
with the dude No, because then
you're leaving yourself wet. Okay, it's
503
00:33:59.640 --> 00:34:01.839
a lot of I know, but
you want to finish with a but you
504
00:34:01.960 --> 00:34:05.039
got to use a wife. Anybody
who doesn't use a wipe, I'm like,
505
00:34:05.039 --> 00:34:08.000
do you wash your car with a
dry rag? Makes sense? You
506
00:34:08.039 --> 00:34:12.559
don't. I mean, hell,
I got excited about my new beard trimmer
507
00:34:12.599 --> 00:34:15.760
the other day, So I mean, I mean you really, do you
508
00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:17.920
reach a certain age you need to
start to appreciate the little things? Yeah,
509
00:34:19.000 --> 00:34:22.679
it's the little things. Accounting like
all this butthole talk like y'all are
510
00:34:22.320 --> 00:34:28.239
run from a bear trays like hasn't
said a word. Apparently he doesn't wipe
511
00:34:28.239 --> 00:34:31.199
his ass. Oh no, I
am, I have all. I have
512
00:34:31.360 --> 00:34:37.320
absolutely agreement with you. That is
my greatest dilemma as far as toilet paper
513
00:34:37.320 --> 00:34:39.280
goes, is that I can never
remember when I'm at the store for some
514
00:34:39.320 --> 00:34:44.840
reason, whether I like Sharman orquilted
Northern Charman Charman, or you get a
515
00:34:44.840 --> 00:34:47.000
bidet if you want to get real
fancy, yes, or just bring in
516
00:34:47.039 --> 00:34:50.480
the garden hose do something, but
you can't just use one, or you
517
00:34:50.559 --> 00:34:52.800
get one of those detachable shower heads
that works too, oh yeah, or
518
00:34:52.920 --> 00:34:57.039
you know, I mean just you
could just bring the hose through the window
519
00:34:57.159 --> 00:34:59.800
or something. But this I think
is important. I think as long as
520
00:34:59.800 --> 00:35:05.840
our our ass cleanliness is up to
a certain standard, I don't think the
521
00:35:05.840 --> 00:35:08.519
three of us have to worry about
bear attacks because our asses will be so
522
00:35:08.880 --> 00:35:13.360
clean a bear won't even smell us. No, no, they won't,
523
00:35:13.440 --> 00:35:15.519
and I know they have good scent. But listen, if you, dude,
524
00:35:15.519 --> 00:35:17.960
wipe and you clean your bootyhole the
right way, I think you're fine.
525
00:35:17.960 --> 00:35:20.719
I don't eve think they'll bother with
you. That's what I'm hoping,
526
00:35:20.719 --> 00:35:22.960
at least, because that's that's what
I said. They just give you like
527
00:35:22.000 --> 00:35:25.079
a hat tip out of respect,
like oh clean butthole, good shit man,
528
00:35:27.199 --> 00:35:30.280
just like not literally, but you
know what I mean. But that's
529
00:35:30.320 --> 00:35:32.840
important, though, dude, that's
important. I literally there's certain things.
530
00:35:32.880 --> 00:35:37.000
Coffee, good coffee, how depressing? Is this? This is the age
531
00:35:37.119 --> 00:35:42.719
rat. We're like good coffee,
yep, good toilet paper, and my
532
00:35:42.800 --> 00:35:46.400
bones crack when it's about to rain. God, really, mind do it
533
00:35:46.440 --> 00:35:49.800
every day no matter what. Yeah, mind you too, But it gets
534
00:35:49.800 --> 00:35:52.280
really bad when it's about the mine. Actually I can't. I can't sneak
535
00:35:52.320 --> 00:35:57.119
out of bed without waking up my
wife because as soon as my toes hit
536
00:35:57.159 --> 00:36:00.840
the hardwood floor, they all snap
and she she pops right up. How
537
00:36:00.920 --> 00:36:02.599
old are we? Should we just
go putting new tennis balls on our walker
538
00:36:02.679 --> 00:36:07.440
now or what? Well, we're
all old enough to remember when mixed one
539
00:36:07.480 --> 00:36:09.280
O two nine was actually new.
Yeah, well that didn't have to take
540
00:36:09.320 --> 00:36:20.159
that was well? Blow just walked
you right into that. Yeah, steel
541
00:36:20.199 --> 00:36:24.000
plated door, didn't I. That's
fun, Billy. It's always fun hanging
542
00:36:24.000 --> 00:36:25.880
out with you. Man. Love
having you in the treehouse. Yeah,
543
00:36:25.880 --> 00:36:28.920
I love. I love being here. So thank you guys for having me.
544
00:36:28.920 --> 00:36:31.000
It's fun. We'll do this more
often, obviously. If you're not
545
00:36:31.119 --> 00:36:35.880
already, then you're just an asshole. If you're not already listening to Billy
546
00:36:35.920 --> 00:36:38.679
the Kids Morning Show. Uh,
it really is. And I'm not just
547
00:36:38.719 --> 00:36:43.400
saying this because he's a close personal
friend, and he's also venmowing me as

00:36:43.400 --> 00:36:46.480
we speak. He's one of the
top talents, not only in DFW radio
549
00:36:46.599 --> 00:36:52.119
